๐ ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐ฒ๐: If Iโm being honest, I never finish a Rebecca Yarros book angry with what Iโve read. Sheโs a really good writer, and she has my number when it comes to emotional books.
One thing I love about her books, and this one in particular, is her stories arenโt linear. Thereโs twists and turns and tons of drama. This book had that in spades. It felt a tiny bit long because of it, but I stayed for the long haul and was awarded with an incredible grand gesture and the best epilogue.
This is one of only a handful of books where I can say the audio didnโt do it justice. Teddy Hamilton was (as always) perfection. But the female narrator was hard for me to listen to, and I found myself not liking the FMC at times because of that.
