I JUST....SO MANY EMOTIONS. The characters are so complicated and well-rounded, and each move is carefully planned out. This series is definitely not for everyone, but if you like it then you LOVE IT. I am so freaking invested in these characters, and I cannot WAIT to see what happens next!

Reread: September 2021

The building relationship...the clever politics...the minute details...Laurent’s control...it is all just <b>so good</b>. The ending gets me every. damn. time. Just an incredible trilogy, with an incredible sequel.
