A near perfect book. I was sad to finish it. I laughed, I cried, I gasped, I pondered. Wow. This was definitely my favourite of the series so far. The characters are so well developed by this book you truly feel attached to them. Their dynamics make for some truly immersive moments. Pierce Brown’s writing was, as usual, exquisite. I was particularly awed by his use of metaphorical language when describing sensations. It was great. I wish I could read it again with new eyes.
