Main point the author hopes to make... There are three major "untruths" accepted (and taught) by society today. They are:
1. What doesn't kill you makes you weaker
2. Always trust your feelings
3. Life is a battle between good people and evil people

Let's see where this goes!

Having never read further than Inkheart, I'm intrigued to continue the story! Meggie is definitely getting into her teenaged, sassy feelings and I appreciate that she's going to let her rebel streak guide her.

Taking a pause though because I just don't have the brain power to read with my eyes right now 😂

"Home is wherever you're loved, Opal."

😭 Charlotte spitting truths and wisdom. Come on Opal! Just receive it and move on from this place!

Phew. Made it through the "identify yourself" chapters... Now onto the "what to do about it" 🙃

If you're ever reading this, I love you Mom 😅 Someone has to break the generational curses.

I have my checklist of people that I think will die here at the end... How many of the 8 I have predicted will surprise me and survive!?

The way I MOWED through these chapters...

Which Valg ruler will betray the other? Or will we see them all killed? Only time will tell...

Dorian, why you gotta split the party even more!?

Man Aelin... You really let loose didn't you 👀

Trying not to anticipate all that's to come, because we know SJM loves a good twist and tragedy 😅

Everyone is looking for someone else, all across the world 😅 How could I forget there were so many pieces of information that need to be brought together?

Thank God we have cellphones 😂

Oh man. I forgot how desperate and sad everyone was at this point in the story. Time to scour the map, remember all the characters, and buckle in!

It's taking me a while to work through this because of the application pieces! I appreciate that JMC's heart is seeing people living their daily lives more like Jesus... Not just encouraging people to do "more ministry" and more "church involvement".

Charming but predictable from the first chapter. Not much mystery about what events may occur, I feel like a child being told what's going to happen in a movie so I don't get scared 🙃

DARROW MY DUDE. JUST LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE WHO LOVE YOU FOR ONCE IN YOUR LIFE.

Glad to get a second, third, and even fourth perspective in this book! Luke and I were just remarking on how we wished there were perspectives other than Darrow's so that we could get an idea of how Pierce Brown feels about the situation. Hard to get an idea of how the author is perceiving the decisions of the main character when all you hear is the main character's perspective 😅

Everyone is suffering in one way or another 🥲

I like this more than I anticipated 😭 Chaol and Nesryn's arcs are so great, and I have hope that they'll figure out how to defeat Erawan. Finally.

This is WAR

Aelin over here flaunting her power 🔥 also I was wondering when she'd remember her desert allies 👀

👀 "Marion" showing her capabilities
