This was such a good read. It keeps the momentum of the previous books going. It left me happy and excited for Cassia and Lio and ready for book 8 to come out.

I really enjoyed reading this book, I thought the characters were very 3D even if at times they fell a little flat. Would recommend and would reread.

 Iron Widow is simply amazing. It explores Chinese culture, queerness, and women's roles in society in a futuristic setting. I cannot wait for the second book to release and see how our main protagonist, Zetian, deals with the patriarchy of her deceitful society.

This book is easily one of the saddest I've read in a while but its gorgeous. Its well written and keeps me engaged which says a lot as I can't concentrate on stuff for long. It closes out a 4 book story very neatly and lovely.
