Someone said: “This is a mess, but so am I.” and I live by that.
Update: I’m now depressed and in a slump because of this trilogy. I don’t want to pick up any other book and just want to reread this again. And I never reread books so that tells you something. Idk what, but something.
Reread Update: Yeah I reread this to start 2021 right. This trilogy is the second book EVER that I have reread. Even better on the second read since I flew through the trilogy in 48 hours the first time. This time I took time and even annotated the books. Man, Niel Josten is just such a good boy, I love him so much. The characters in these books are what does it for me, if I’m being honest. There’s nothing really riveting about them but they’re my babies and I’ll kill for them.
