Me: "I just don't think anything could ever beat Legendborn"

Tracy Deonn: *Writes Bloodmarked*

Bloodmarked reminded why I loved Legendborn so much, and then some. Tracy Deonn has also cemented herself in my mind as one of the best writers of a love triangle ever.

I'd also like to say that, though I am biracial Mexican-American and not Black, Bree's journey throughout this series has always resonated with me. Deonn shows it perfectly in her storytelling, but also in her author's note at the end. Marginalised groups, especially women from marginalised groups, are expected to be brave and strong and fearless and accepting of the hardships forced upon them. But that's not always fair. And we shouldn't always have to bear those burdens. Bree is a perfect exploration of what this means. She's allowed to be complicated and confused and less than perfect. I'll always be thankful Tracy Deonn brought her into our lives.
