Runa trembled. “You can’t have him. I won’t let you. Death is not welcome here.”
I flinched.
Was she talking about me?
Had I been drawn here because of her or because of Natim?
Was that another facet of my power?
To travel to the bedsides of dying creatures?
Because he was dying.

Bruh do you realize how many creatures die every second?!!! I cannot believe how stupid these characters are.

Darro has black blood because he's the night. OMG hahahaha, I can't. Why is this book so unimaginative?

OMG wait wait wait: I've had a thought. Runa was sent to the horny jail by everyone, wasn't she?
hahahaha

wow the whole point of this entire shenanigan is to not fuck each other? Bruh how hard is that to do? I honestly can't believe this whole book is written because two idiots can't not 'fuck' :(

not me thinking it's a hades and persephone retelling and already being correct :\

I love Pepper, but this book so far is so predictably boring that I am genuinely struggling to continue. Someone please tell me it gets better (￣□￣」)

God this book sucks and I can no longer do this. DNFing this shit

OH MY GAWDDD!! I have never seen anyone more allergic to learning than this idiot parading as the protagonist!

Ah god Rin is so stupid that the only reason she's survived the last two books is because she has the damned protagonist halo. Fuck man, she's making it impossible to even root for her.

“I had a feeling you were extremely resourceful when I first met you,”

Dear God of Tricks and Bargains,
With all due respect, what the fuck? I've been reading this story for the last how many ever chapters, and she's been the least resourceful character in the history of resourceful characters. So I repeat, what the fuck?

“I hated you for what you did. I refused to trust you because of it. Why didn’t you tell me the truth?”

Yes, why did you not tell me the truth? I, whose existence you were unaware of for your whole life. I, who am so self-important that I must be told of every single good deal you've done so that I do not feel guilty about kissing my brothers' betrayer!

Fuck I hate her.

“The alternative was to ask you to go, and that wasn’t the alternative I wanted.”

Sounds awfully romantic if I didn't know the full context of it. I can't figure out if the author is trying to rewrite history with romance, or if she's saying that it was love at first sight, or if it's just more vague political posturing😶

“You stole knowledge you weren’t entitled to, so when you need it most, that knowledge will fail you. When you are at your most helpless, you will forget every lesson I ever gave you.”

The way to sidestep this Curse is so easy! Just learn to fight from another person! If this actually takes hold I will throw this book out

"I spent my entire childhood wanting a family, and this is the one I got. The gods have a twisted sense of humor."

Nah, you're just an idiot who thinks they're the hot shit🙄

This whole book is just a bunch of contradictions. The protagonist says one thing and refutes herself in the literal next breath. Wtf bro

"I’m fixated on them, the cousins circling each other like wolves"

I'm imagining two lanky 17 year old boys posturing and circling each other "like wolves" and I can't even take myself seriously wth😂

I am ridiculously slow if it just hit me that this is a weird ass mix of mahabharat and ramayana😂

"That’s why he isn’t just gifting her to Alexi. He wants him to earn her.”

BUT YOU JUST SAID HE RIGGED THE COMPETITION SO ALEXI COULD WIN! 😩

"That part of the story has always made me sad on Titania’s behalf, condemned by the one who made her because he would rather she were destroyed than risk her hurting him in some way."

So far we have an annoying protagonist, war plans being discussed in the open air, child characters with monumental self importance but no weight, and a goddess sharing my name. I'm not liking this very much.😩

Sympathy for the Bones was so freaking good! Okay, I really am vibing with Liu's writing (✯◡✯)

The queen has to fall in love with the sacrifice.

Well, that couldn’t possibly be true either. That was even more impossible to believe than Finley’s stupid theory.

Sure, you idiot. You know more than the witches who've been performing this ritual for centuries. Like wtf, this book is making me reconsider reading YA.😶

God this is so stupid, I feel like I'm loosing brain cells here.

'm/m arranged marriage in space'
This is what the author has claimed this book to be and so obviously there is no other option but to read it.

“I heard you pinch the other waiter’s ass,” said the bandit, bored. “It’s not even that good an ass. Shouldn’t you be more discriminating when you harass people?”
“That’s so rude,” said the waitress indignantly. “Ah Kheng, you don’t listen to him! You have a very nice ass!”
Ah Kheng had vanished, but his voice drifted out from the kitchen: “Please stop talking about my ass.”

I LOVE this novel ＼(*T▽T*)／

"Madness is like a muscle though—if you don’t use it, you lose it."

I have no fucking clue what's going on anymore, but damn if this book ain't hella quotable.

"I was surrounded by wreaks. I was raised by them."

Damn.
