“And remember also that in fighting against man, we must not come to resemble him”

I LOVE that in his speech he mentions that they do not want to become like their enemies (humans). This is so important because when have a revolution people get lost in their cause and do things against their own morals.

“all men are enemies. All animals are comrades”

“Man is the only creature that consumes without producing…Yet he is the lord of all animals”

Talk your shit queen

I am so looking forward to reading this!

“Usually when a man calls a woman a bitch, it’s because she’s doing something right.”

I am bored…

This is intense

“I saw it. It blazed through your Noise like a fire. Every man in the army felt the same thing, Todd. You’re never more alive than in battle.”

“Never more dead after”

“That’s the nasty, nasty secret of war–
When yer winning–
When yer winning, it’s ruddy thrilling–“

“If it would save Todd, it wouldn’t have mattered, I was going to do it–
I would have killed hundreds, thousands to save him.
I would have started an even bigger war for Todd.”

BRO- 🧍🏽‍♀️💕💐

Please don’t let Todd be the man that turns into a monster… let one of these books end happily PLEASE

This back and forth POV is so intense

“What other kind of man is suitable for war?”
“A monster”

Also as a RVT to be, I will not tolerate anymore animal death in this series… my heart cannot take it. Never recommend a book to me that an animal dies in please

“It’s that you need to love something that much so you can never be controlled.”

AWWWW

“Never love something so much it can be used to control you.”

UMMMMM

THIS IS SO SAD!!!!!! WHAT IN THE DADDY ISSUES IS THIS?

No words

“We are the choices we make. And have to make. We aren’t anything else.”

I really hope this series ends happily but knowing the ending of the first book I know Sir Ness has no trouble breaking my heart for fun lol

Nooo not them being pinned against each other :(

This is such an easy story to fall in love with! What talented story telling so slay slay slay

I HATE the miscommunication trope HOLYYY

“To live is to fight…To preserve life is to fight everything that man stands for.”

I love his values! I love that he always chooses to save them even when they hurt him. WHAT A SWEETHEART 🕺🏻💕💐

“To see the ocean once is to learn how to miss it”

LOVE THIS QUOTE! Also fair to say I am very invested in the story again! I was worried it wouldn’t be as good as the first book but so far so good!

Oouuuu Viola’s POV?!

So I read the first book in this series a few years ago and LOVED it but never got around to read the next books. I am in a reading slump but remembered the series and want to try to read it…

“One reads poetry because he is a member of the human race, and the human race is filled with passion! Medicine, law, banking—these are necessary to sustain life. But poetry, romance, love, beauty? These are what we stay alive for!”

This reminds me of the solider, poet, king test. Such a pretty quote

“you will learn to savor language and words because no matter what anyone tells you, words and ideas have the power to change the world.”
