All I hear in my head is Morgan Freeman.

HO-LEE FUCK THIS BOOK IS SLOW. Look, I get it… it takes a minute to recruit thousands of slaves to overthrow an empire that has oppressed them for literally 1,000 years BUT OMG KICK IT INTO GEAR! It’s just so damn slow! And Vin annoying me has subsided for now; or at least isn’t as potent/strong. She’s not mentioning her brother as often so… that’s nice. BUT LET’S MAKE HASTE! LET’S GOOOOOOOOOWUH!!!!!!

DON’T WORRY EVERYONE! Even in Nadir’s chapters, NOSTRAZA IS STILL MENTIONED 😹😹😹 I fucking canNOT.

If she’s not mentioning Nostraza, she’s mentioning Willow and Tristan. If she’s not mentioning Willow and Tristan, she’s fighting back tears. If she’s not fighting back tears, she’s snorting. And if she’s snorting, it’s derisively.

This is fucking annoying.

Chapter twenty was a waste of time and it felt too hurried. It felt like it had a very “teenage fanfic no one understands me” tone and yeah, no. Not a fan.

STOP. MENTIONING. NOSTRAZA. IT HAS BEEN WEEKS. STOP COMPARING EVERYTHING TO IT. GFDI.

I KNOW WHO SHE IS. I know who she is. AH HA. Obvs she’s important but I know EXACTLY who this bitch is. Muahahahah.
(If I’m wrong, disregard this update. Tyvm Kgr8thx luvyewbye)

The overly-descriptive flowery crap is getting old too. Like shut up and be in the moment. Not every paragraph needs to be some overly-described revelation of something. Less is more.

If she’s not mentioning Nostraza, she’s mentioning herself “fighting back tears.”

HWAT is HWITH this HINCESSANT REPETITION!?!

The fucking prison was mentioned again and now I am screaming. Can you hear it?

“He’s just a male and can’t control his actions.”
Ooooo loving how it’s a woman’s responsibility to answer for a man’s actions — EVEN WHEN HOMIE IS THE KING HIMSELF.
That’ssssssss what? Misogynistic? Sexist? Every day life I guess?
That was just a disappointing line to read.

For some girl that claims to be a hardened bitch… she sure does feel the need to cry a lot.

Omg I’m gunna lose my mind.
SHE LIVED IN NOSTRAZA AND IT SUCKS! MOVE 👏🏼 ON 👏🏼
If it’s mentioned past page 150, I’m going to scream.

Also, her incessant questions are reminding me of Poppy from From Blood and Ash. Good fucking god.
I know no one is telling her anything but will you PLEASE just PICK A WEAPON and STAND AND OBSERVE! STFU!
My impatience is about to make me DNF, istg.

HOW MANY FUCKING TIMES IS SHE GOING TO MENTION NOSTRAZA!?!
WE GET IT!!!! IT’S A MISERABLE HELL-HOLE WHERE DREAMS AND HOPE GO TO DIE! WE 👏🏼 GET 👏🏼 IT 👏🏼 STFU ABOUT IT! GOOD GOD.

Cardic and Lore LITERALLY fist-fighting over Cardic reading is hilarious. I honestly love the dynamics of siblings 😹😹

Okay, Scarlett. I won’t send the letters because of the little twist. You’re safe…. For now 🫵🏼

Four pages later… SCARLETT ST. CLAIR!!!! HOW COULD YOU!?! 😭🫵🏼🫠 letter campaign starting NOW.

Istg if anything bad happens to Samara in this book, I’m going to lose it. If this is all some elaborate scheme, I’m starting a letter campaign to Scarlett herself and DEMAND RETRIBUTION.

If anything happens to Sieh, I’m rioting. I love him already.

GIRL! KEEP IT IN YOUR PANTS AND FOCUS! We get how hot he is jfc! Talk about something else for a fucking change gdi.

Okay she is getting on my last nerve calling Fisher “a piece of work” and a “bastard.” Why? All because HER ego can’t take being wrong? Bitch please.

If I had a nickel for every time I asked this question: HOW ARE PEOPLE ALLOWED TO KILL DEATH!?
I’d have two nickels. It’s not a lot but it’s WEIRD that it has happened TWICE.

There ain’t NO WAY that meeting with Angelica was friggin real. The proprietor totally set that up so he could sell the stone and set up a potential reoccurring customer…. There ain’t NO FRIGGIN WAY.

I have no idea what’s going on lol
He’s trying to find love in exchange for wealth. Fascinating.

Sixteen chapters in and my thoughts of this book are: “yes and no.”
Idk what it is but whenever it’s Lenna’s POV, it’s a no. But when it’s Hope’s POV, it’s a yes.

Lenna is annoying. Hope a lot less so.
But yeah. My thoughts are: yes and no. Yes but no.

Lenna’s petulance and anti-monarchy act is already getting old. Like either cause a rebellion or get in line. You can’t sit there and say “f the monarchy” while you conform to it with no plans to revolt from the inside.
She’s twenty-five btw and her father just called her a teenager so… which is it? Father is ruler and dad. You can’t be surprised that he disciplines you, dumb ass.

What is the point of the table offering? Like honestly?

Did her father leave the room at some point? Why would a “royal” let their HEIR speak to someone as Lenna spoke to Jake?
Like I know she “marches to her own beat” but still — royals tend to keep up appearances.

Wth was that?
