  • I enjoyed this book so much that I read it in about three hours. The writing is impeccable. 
  • Developed an instant, tiny crush on the plague doctor; right now to their description and mannerisms. How do I find my own genderless plague doctor? Asking for a friend.
  • Was also devastated when said plague doctor first perished! I actually shouted "No!" HELP.
  • Everything was so raw and the medical terminology used had me NERDING OUT.
  • "How do you kill any religion? You convince its flock that their shepherds are wolves."
