Now, someone is saying "Tsa-la-gi" as "juh-log-E"
Do not recommend the audiobook.

Okay, doing the audiobook version of this and got the ick. They just pronounced mvto like "moo-toe" and not "muh-doe"

Okay, this feels very akin to the current political climate and gaslighting that is occurring on a national scale.

Loving the clear communication of "I like you, but also her and I want to explore both"
Heck those love triangles

The researching artifacts on the black market is feeling like Warrior Girl Unearthed

This governor complaining about Natives running their own smoke shop and not giving taxes to the state sounds awfully similar to Governor Stitt

They are already having sex. I am bored.

So much that film left out, but with a book this long there's no way it could have all fit. The kids' characters are enjoyable

Not going too bad, but i can see why people think he's a weirdo with the sexual things. Woman is abused and then is horny for her abuser?

I'm trying to get over what feels like it may be issues with police work, but it is difficult. I'm trying to act like this book is set more in the 70s than 60s but they keep bringing up the Beatles and Puff the Magic Dragon. That being said, now they're talking about swabbing blood to see if it's victim's or killer's. DNA evidence wasn't a thing. Best they would have had is blood type. That better be it.

Once again, putting on latex gloves. Still doesn't make sense to me. This is 60s/70s. No DNA, no fingerprints, no blood or body to contaminate. Why would they be wearing gloves?

BISEXUAL PROTAGONIST?!?!?! Ugh, I am loving this so much.

This far in and so far delighted. We have had 2 spirit mentioned and now we(the readers) get a little 'tistic boy. Also, feels very familiar to a version of residential boarding school, but hopefully less abuse and more just "white people society faux pas" since it feels very Victorian-esque

Fantasy but make it Native? I'm in.

Now, this book is talking about somebody not being able to get out of the car due to a seatbelt. Seatbelt mandates weren't a thing until the 80s. Why would this character have even been wearing one?

I am interested in this, but currently struggling with the timeline. I feel like it's supposed to be late 60s/early 70s. But the cops are investigating in a way where they're concerned about evidence, which is crazy because DNA didn't start up til like the 80s. Doesn't make sense. And someone just used the word "nonbinary"

We better find out that Jace is Stephen's son everybody thought was dead. I can't handle more of Clary being in love with her brother.

Okay, interesting, set in Oklahoma. Author is familiar or did their research about Miami, OK. (After a quick Google search, she's FROM Miami. Makes sense now.)
Queer indigenous character, murder, mystery, and in my own state? I am SAT.

I'm enjoying this book a lot so far. She feels like a delightful person. Chapter 3 she talks about being groomed in such a kind way to her past self and I love it.

This is going to be such a struggle to get through, but I want to see where it's going. There have been so many sex scenes so far and it feels like every other line has the word "cock" in it or is describing one. I guess it's supposed to be more raunchy/raw, but I'm not enjoying this.

I thought we were going to lose Riddoc which would have been a disappointment since he is one of my reasons to continue this book.
Also, the following challenge feels like a deck of many things challenge.

I am not having a good time. I feel like this book is going by so slowly. I feel like Yarros could definitely have cut down this book if she really wanted to.

A little bit more info about Paul and I am annoyed by his existence

Already annoyed with Xaden and his brooding and his "you should be scared of me. I'm so broken" nonsense and Violet and her "I love him. I can fix him" nonsense.

Still just weird little happenings. Wondering when it shall get "dark"

First semi-violent outburst from the dad. Getting sad.

Oh, this is gonna hurt my feelings and I shall cry.

Ugh, I want to get interested in this book to figure out why she snaps, but this is dull
