"Sometimes it can feel so good to give someone what they want it is the next best thing to getting what you want." - The Midnight Lie by Marie Rutkoski
Nirrum lives in the lowest ward with the rest of the Half Kith. They are made to work for the Middling and High Kith's pleasure. Make all of their goods for them and paying tithes if they are caught breaking the law. Nirrum knows this is the way of it. That is until she meets Sid. A self proclaimed lair and a rake. Sid is a traveler. One who is seeking the secret of the magic of the High Kith. Nirrum must decided whether to leave all that she knows behind for the chance of something new. Something magical.
This book took so many of my deepest thoughts and collected them onto these pages. There were several moments were I had to physical but the book down and take a moment to process. Her fight, both internal and external, for her own happiness hit really close to home. It's hard to put what I feel for this book into words.
