This took me forever to finish, not because I did t like it but because I couldn’t find the time these books I tend to read hours straight 
  • I LOVED wests part in this book
    he is very morally ambiguous, ge is more cynical now but I really wonder how the death of the prince guy will be handled in his mind, what if he tells Ardee!
  • I really wanted Ferro and Logan to work :( Logan was so funny to me in this one
    especially when he was sort of pouting on the boat ride
  • What’s going on with Quai? I think he might be evil that would be really interesting, however I would like to see that mingle if he were to be merciful to Logan because Logan saved him
  • Sex scenes I usually hate, but the way it was written here made me audibly laugh at the intentional awkwardness I wish I had listened to this on audiobook
