Ngl I’m kinda struggling with this one.

I think it’s the fact that we’re only a quarter of the way through the book and they’re already together. I like my romances with HEAVY pining and yearning, and that is simply not this book I fear.

So Jude and Anton mean everything to me actually

The Molly plotline in these books is going to kill me dead I s2g. It’s not as bad in this book as it was in the last one but COME ON

At least it gave Burrich back to me for a bit so I guess it gets points there.

Oh? A crossover short story about Hazelthorn and Don’t Let The Forest In? That’s cool

(I am frothing at the mouth as we speak)

Give Verity back to me PLEASE

But also I think it’s really impressive that when Fitz is being influenced by the skill it’s such a series of subtle changes that even I don’t notice until Fitz does.

HARVEST MOON MENTION!!!!!

I fear I may have to soft dnf this one bc as much as I’m enjoying it, I’m just truly not in the mood for her right now. Especially not at the same time as Assassin’s Quest.

Look at me finally getting back into this audiobook!

I need everyone to read this series right now it truly is that serious.

I’m 25 pages in and I’ve already had to put down the book to scream about something that happened, these characters make me UNWELL

Who’s ready for an 800 page tome babyyyyyyyy

This book is so aggressively fine. I’m somehow deeply intrigued and incredibly bored at the same time.

Now why are we kissing already???

Gabe and Holland are giving the exact opposite vibe as Scarlett and Julian from Caraval, and y’know what I’m having a p good time

Shout out to the Native American vampire book for making me cry that was so cool and fun.

I am deeply and truly unwell about these two.

I just updated about this book but it’s so good I gotta keep yelling.

ANYWAY one thing that I really enjoy about CG Drews books is that there is always some kind of reason as to why the main character might be detached from reality and can explain what’s going on outside of the supernatural but in this book it’s so different from Don’t Let The Forest In which is so impressive to me.

“If he could dig his fingernails into the sides of Laurie’s face and peel back the mask, he would. He would core him like a pear and throw away the soft, rotted skin until he saw him as he really is: horrible and beautiful and real”

My god

I forgot how good CG Drews’ writing was my god. The way they describe things makes me feel sick but like in a good way?

I’m begging for this author to explain literally anything. “Oh I’m from the kingdom of ____” BITCH WHAT IS THAT YOU HAVE NEVER MENTIONED THAT BEFORE

Listen, the audiobook is narrated by Peter Capaldi. I’m sat.

We have about 30 pages until the end of the book, what the FUCK are we doing?

Literally just slammed the book closed and screamed iykyk

It’s honestly so refreshing that this story doesn’t have the typical “one girl is a massive bitch to everyone because she’s so dedicated to winning” trope.

These are ALL girl’s girls, and I appreciate that deeply.

🚨THERE WAS ONLY ONE BED🚨

I swear if Bram turns out to be like Maven from Red Queen you will not hear from me for several business days

There's def some greater literary significance to the change from Wellie to Kwazdo in terms of identity and humanity beyond the obvious, I just don't think I'm smart enough to put it into words
