Ok let me start out with saying that I don’t like Phury. I don’t like Phury sososoososo much, he annoys me SO much. I hate his sob story. I mean, his concerns and emotions are valid it’s just annoying because I don’t care. The way he treated Cormia throughout a majority of the book just reinforced this for me. 
I don’t like his addiction plot. After 300+ years of living and NOW you’re gonna overdose? Dude. I feel like it’s just stupid and put together terribly. Not realistic. He would have tried something harder a LONG time ago if his whole “wizard” emotional war was the case.

I liked Cormia. In fact, she might be one of my favorite girl characters. I like how powerful she is even though her whole existence she’s told she couldn’t be. She’s different, in a good way. Exploring the world through her eyes was beautiful and I loved every second. Her relationship with Bella and John was adorable and I want MORE. She can have a better man than Phury any day but if we have to settle, sure. 

JOHN MATTHEWS ❤️ Truly my favorite character. He’s so sweet and such a baby and I love him. I was so happy when he got Tohr back but upset for him because it wasn’t like he thought it was going to be. I’m always rooting for John, even if he’s wrong. Blay and Qhuinn are such good friends for him. What they did to lash was 100% justified. 

I liked Rehv’s POV. Excited for the next book. 

LASSITER? I CANT WAIT TO KNOW MORE.
