@Bopeep- I had a lot of your initials thoughts. (view spoiler)


Katie (love---katie) | 576 comments I've started as well! I think I'm about 10 chapters in, so also reading ahead a bit, and I plan to read more today!

I'm very excited to keep reading but I need to take a break to unpack a little bit (I moved early last week and graduated yesterday--yay!)


Katie (love---katie) | 576 comments So I ended up finishing it because I was so hooked!

Honestly, I'm a bit surprised this is part of a series. I think it would have worked perfectly as a standalone with the way things ended. However, I am excited to read the next book once it comes out next year!


Abigail | 210 comments I'm somewhere in chapter 20. (view spoiler)


Emily | 84 comments I've had the most stressful week ever - I've only had time to read one chapter (hence why I've been quiet). I'm hoping I can catch up as what I've read really intrigued me and I can't wait to read on

BTW This book reads so fast! I don't even have time to make my (usual) crazy theories before they talk about that matter.

Deka Protection Squad™ <-- I like this hahaha


Bopeep (bopip) | 1088 comments Book finished~

Tawallah | 130 comments Yes Bopeep, that last comment was so good. It made me smile as well and truly made this a feminist book.
The sequel is due for release soon. But I'm waiting on a subscription box I used to get the first one. Hope they get the African edition again. Not even sure where this next one will go. The Merciless Ones (The Gilded Ones, #2) by Namina Forna
