with how apathetic i felt about the romance in my last read, i needed a reminder of what it feels like to be so attached to a fictional romantic pairing that you will never feel bored of reading about them; and moth & charlie are absolutely it for me.

they’re just one of my all-time comfort ships, and i adore them so much :’)

reading their story again and revisiting the barren stretch of the Wastes was just as immersive as before.  all the monsters we get to meet and cities visited that are run by the military made the worldbuilding in this story absolutely incredible. it feels fitting that that was so since moth spent practically his whole life in the Wastes alone, and now he got to explore it with charlie, who only got to see one part of it in his time in the military.

small parts of the story made me yearn to re-read the other books in this series because the way all these characters are connected is so mind-boggingly well-done. i cannot wait for when the final book comes out.
