First Cassius was a lost cause now Roque is a lost cause and the crazy thing is I don’t even sympathize with him anymore 😔

Soooooooo the Jackal is tryna nuke Mars?🫤

This far into the story I kinda don’t know how to feel abt Darrow and Cassius. I sympathize with both of them but I feel like because of how far they’ve gone in their own directions, their relationship is a lost cause.

Ragnar became a legend among his people, I can’t do this today 😖😭🤚🏾

The Obsidians are actually so terrifying but I’m glad that they liberated themselves. At least they’re good😔🙏🏾 I feel very hopeful abt this war. I just wish Ragnar was still apart of it. LLR🕊️

Pierce Brown genuinely needs to go to jail😑 the one character I was begging not to die 🙁 what’s his problem like actually 😣

That pilot did not deserve to go out like that 😔

Oh my goodness, it worked! We’re getting a Darrow and Sevro intermission right this instant 🤭

How DARE Pierce make me not like Sevro within the span of a couple chapters 😖 who does he think he is? The dictator of this story? NO! I AM! And I want a Sevro redemption arc NOW!🔥

I’m not loving this progressive downfall of Sevro😔 I can’t bear him messing up badly

The more I love Ragnar, the more scared I get for him. I swear if anything happens to him I genuinely might have to dnf the rest of the saga. But I love how he’s such an emotional support for Darrow and how he helped him reconnect with his community. That was so sweet. And Victra😫 my girl, I shoulda been w you from day one but girl I’m w you now 😣🤞🏾

I was starting to have hope in his pity but after finding Lu that Cassius took out Fitchner? Oh yeah, he’s gotta go 😕 And I think the honor should go to Sevro. Sevro and Ragnar are honestly my favorite characters now.

6 chapters in and I already can’t do this 😑 Darrow finally truly appreciating Victra?!?! HELLO! Sevro is now Ares!!!! I wish he and Fitchner got a chance to make up😔 and don’t get me started on Trigg cuz what the heck was that, that was so mean for no reason. I’m genuinely so upset abt it🙄🤚🏾 but Ragnar is back so I guess I can push forward

How many times people gotta tell Darrow to stop messing w the Jackal for him to FINALLY GET IT😖 now Roque is evil and Lorn is gone and UUUGGGHHH!!!!! I don’t even know what to say anymore😒

Wait I’m so scared I feel like Roque is gonna do something horrible or this ceremony is abt to go extremely bad. I was hoping this book wouldn’t end on some extreme cliff hanger but I’m starting to doubt that.

The whole scene with Darrow and his mom was so wholesome 😣 but I wish Mustang would understand why Darrow is doing what he’s doing. I just hope she doesn’t turn on him. But no matter what happens, all I know is right now Ragnar is my favorite character

WHAT THE ACTUAL FLIP WHAT DO YOU MEAN FITCHNER IS ARES‼️🤯😱 WHAT THE HECK‼️‼️‼️ Does Sevro know?!?! OH MY GOODNESS 😖

Lowkey I love Ragnar, he deserves everything good 🥺🫶🏾

I cannot stress enough how much I love Darrow’s inner monologue. He’s so humble and authentic and self aware but he also knows his worth and pride. Even though I don’t agree w him sometimes, I’m always rooting for him. I’m glad that Roque and Darrow are working on making up. But oh my goodness this whole war is so nerve wracking 😣🫣

“‘And who do you know that can kill me? The Jackal failed. Antonia au Severus-Julii failed. Proctors
Apollo and Jupiter failed. Cassius au Bellona failed. Karnus failed. Cagney failed. Aja au Grimmus and her Praetorians failed.’ The hangman failed. The mines and pitvipers failed. ‘And now you fail.’” (pdf 308) Don’t play w Darrow 🤭

“‘He was practicing in private, shaking o some of the rust. Said he wanted to surprise you with a sonata, Darrow.’

Tactus was always my friend. He
just got lost in trying to be the man his family wanted him to be, when all along his friends loved the man he already was.” (pdf 281)

Tactus my Shayla😭😣
