unfortunately i need to go scream into the void for approximately 12 years. my heart hurts. i am angry. i want to throttle lysander, the little coward. i can’t BELIEVE how much he switched up in this book!! the most untrustworthy little rat! i want his death to be long and painful and drawn out by everyone he has wronged or betrayed. 

diomedes is the best, my actual favorite character in the series so far—he would make a good sovereign since it seems like sometimes he is the only one who can see what path is going to be best for the people.

this series has been NUTS.

ok one last note… the abomination is still out there (jackal clone) so the plot for red god just got that much crazier (as if there wasn’t already enough on our hands)
