I have such immense love for this duology!

Here is what you will receive (more of) in this book:
1. Literally achingly beautiful writing
2. A swoon-worthy love story
3. Thought provoking themes 

This book held a wealth of information that I was dying for after the first: world building, magic system details, relationship dynamics, character backgrounds and developments. Rachelle is just such a phenomenal writer that all of this information is delivered to us so poetically. Her writing is just so inviting! Every time I picked this story back up, I was immediately immersed in the world and the characters, and I was completely invested in what was playing out on-page. Also… I once again found myself thinking deeply about life and love and humanity and ethics and relationships… and everything in between. 

This is a series that has touched my soul and will forever own a piece of my heart. The conclusion to Anna and Khiran is bittersweet - it was such a joy to witness the centuries-long journey, but I will also always be desperate for more!  Add another tear to the tin for me, Rachelle - you’ve got a new fangirl for life!.
