Yo what was that ending?? I still have so many questions. I also still don’t understand the randomness of the mom subplot. I had no attachment towards her and I would still love to learn more about Medra’s actual background besides the vague “I’m not from this world” bit. I appreciated Blake’s character development and loved how more of the side characters were actually on Medra’s side. Bummed the third book got pushed back but happy for the author for getting picked up by a trad publishing house!
