This book is great and also it tore chunks out of my soul. The world feels very like part of our own world's history. I was rooting so hard for Touraine, for her squad, for Qazal. Luca disappointed me often. She's the kind of person who's maybe capable of doing better than a lot of the people around her, but she still has a conservative mindset that she needs to break free of. Touraine made her share of bad choices, but, between how she was raised and wanting to protect her squad, I could understand more why she did what she did. If they're still the focus of the next book, I'm interested to see how they grow. I am absolutely going to read the next book.
