Ugh omg I truly deeply love the characters in this book and I know my heart will only be broken in time. I love the Fool and am so so interested to know more. I adore how slow paced and carefully plotted this series is so far and how vast I know the story will end up being. I so appreciate the balance of this story - the stakes are extremely high and the topics serious without being gratuitously violent and while maintaining moments of love, hope, and levity. Can't wait to finish off this trilogy and continue in the Realm!! (also we all agree that Verity is super hot right?)
