at the core of this story is a boy who had his brother withdraw from him because of his childhood and a boy who had his childhood taken from him with the death of his brother. the long-building intensity of the regent and laurent’s political maneuvering and the way this represents
laurent’s fight for personhood and escape from his abuser as he reclaims his sexuality, his sense of self worth, his vulnerability, and the respect of the people of his court that the regent isolated him from
built so satisfyingly to its conclusion. love getting to see my babygirl laurent get everything he deserves. this book fixed something in me and kept me hooked and for that i can give it no less than 5 stars
