I still really like this series, but it's starting to feel like it takes me a while to get into the mood and mindset of who and what all the worlds and characters are about; by the time I get there, the novella I'm reading has ended.

I spent most of this one wanting to hug Kade and refuse to let go until he understands that none of it was his fault. 

Favorite Quotes:

Lives are lived and lost in “almost.”

“People who can’t change aren’t really perfect, and no matter how much we love it somewhere, that doesn’t mean it’s good for us,” said Sumi.

"This isn't my world, not really. It was hers, and she never existed anyway, and so I'm not staying here."

“People who’ve been hurt often think they have some sort of right to go around hurting other people,” said Sumi. “They think trauma’s a toy to keep handing down forever. But the fact that someone hurt you and tied you up in knots doesn’t give you the right to do it to anybody else. I’m a formerly dead girl made of gingerbread and hope, and even I can see that.”
