1. After all of that, there's a book two (2). I barely survived the stress of book one (1), and now you're telling me I'm going to have to try and survive it again. Yhu. What a difficult.

2. Aram is either autistic or has adhd, ocd, or, you know, all of the above. And yes, we need more neurodivergent main characters where the story isn't about fixing them but about them fighting dark magick with dragons!

3. This book just goes to show that I totally 100% can read a 300+ page book in one day, I just don't want to, lmao
