Overall Thoughts:
⁕ If you like your dystopian fantasy novels with a heaping dose of sheer terror, this is the book for you! I can best describe it as The Handmaid’s Tale meets American Horror Story.
⁕ I could not get enough of Immanuel’s parents! The vignettes of their past and the snippets from their letters to one another are gripping. Immanuel and Ezra however…. I found the the development of their relationship unbelievable😅
⁕ I wish the world-building was a bit more explicit. It felt a bit cookie-cutter.
