This book is just beautiful. It has mystery and intrigue, but it’s about pain and the love of found family that runs so deep, not even death can diminish it. The emotions portrayed in this book are so honest and accurate that I found myself in tears by the end. Maas did all of these characters justice, and portrayed lovely ideas in a bold and not-cheesy sort of way.
