i hate hate HATE that there is so much going on in this book. the beauty of the previous instalments was that every book had one main goal that was built up to. this was just all over the place. 

side note: i’m very much team adrian. and as much as i loved dimitri in shadow kiss, i wish they’d killed him <3
