An overthinker who has always followed the rules and lived in his parent’s shadows must shine his own light and find his way when everything is falling apart. He has to bend some rules to save the world while the one person he truly wants there is nowhere. Literally. Jorgen’s POV is everything to me. 

This man, who is barely more than a child, honestly, has lived his life with a certain level of control and expectations. Thus, watching everything and himself unravel was captivating, even if a little heart-wrenching, too. 

I absolutely loved seeing the inner workings of his brain and the complexities of his character. This story highlights his personality and how it contrasts with Spensa’s in the most perfect way. The amount of love he has and the way he loves had me blushing.
