I don't know where to start with my review... The writing was beautiful. At times I found myself struggling slightly to follow along, but I believe the way everything was crafted did a wonderful job at getting you in the mind of Lucifer.
I liked being able to see Lucifer fall more and more; his thoughts took up the page and unnatural sentences showcased his madness (or whatever you might call it) really well.
I had initially not planned to read this when I did, but I felt the voices compelling me. I'm glad I listened. Parts of this story made me sad, happy, upset, disgusted, do a thousand yard stare. The works. I will also mention I took a two hour break because I started having an existential crisis while reading!
Reading the entire thing within 24 hours also helped me stay on top of what was happening. Hard to tell how much time truly passes up in Heaven, I guess.
Hopefully my Catholic Sunday school teacher doesn't remember me. I think she'd hate me (probably already does) for this. Welp!
