This was such an amazing novel from beginning to end. And once I finished this book, I immediately needed to get the last book in my hands. 
There was so much happening in the novel but Sabaa wrote it so well that it was easy to comprehend and get lost in, without getting confused. All of the stories came together so well and once it clicked, it all clicked and I loved seeing every bit of it. It’s rare for me to love every point of view in a book — but I loved them all. I wanted them all (well, save for one) to live, to have a happy life, to be happy with their chosen family. And my heart was torn out in the best way because of it.
