That PLOT TWIST! Screaming, crying, throwing up. It’s been a long time since a book made me gasp out loud and just not understand why. Immediately opening the next one.

I only say the characters aren’t all lovable because Arcturus reads like a robot to me, so I don’t fully  feel the depth of their connection. I know he’s not human, but it reads as disingenuous to me. Paige has also infuriated me with some of her decisions but that makes for a spicy plot and I’m here for it.
