I was very wary about going into this novel just because Electra did not seem like a very likable character in the last installments. I loved the development of her character undertook in this novel and how she found her voice in all her troubles. I also liked Cecily's story and how it tied in with Electra's story. Furthermore, it was interesting to see Kenja during World War II as it is a perspective that I have not read before.
