all the names and the info-dumping is confusing sometimes, but I still enjoy it for now

What did the author put in this book?????

these last few pages were not for the weak. I cringed a bit too hard.

It’s infuriating to see Vin and Roz together… especially how Vin is unable to hold one conversation!
but at the same time I see myself in Vin - I too shut everything out if I am feeling unwell/unsafe in a relationship.

Elode, girl, open your eyes. I think it’s clear that Bren is Jude’s father. I mean his caginess about his childhood photos and he started working out and got laser eye surgery… he didn’t find her randomly in Australia…

the dynamic between Bren and Jude feels wrong, but that could just be a that - a feeling.
I would be truly interested in seeing how these two interact without Elodies gaze on them…

“She’s trying so hard. She’s giving him everything. She will never understand him, not even if she took a box cutter to his chest and opened him up to see what is so very wrong with her child.” - I need to confess that it’s sickening to read this book out of her POV and how she victimizes herself… maybe I’m too quick to judge but damn - you give him everything BUT the things he actually needs.

“She and Bren are butchers, merciless as they tear and drill and saw at this house and rend mottled, bloodied flesh from bone in an effort to turn it into something beautiful.” - is that an allegory to Jude, as in they need to turn him into something ‘better’? It sure feels like it.

there was a owen mention!!!!
I want to see his receding hairline, so please let there be a book about him 😩

this book makes me a bit uncomfortable because I’m always a bit nervous in regards of health and chronic illness…
I do love koen and serena though. and that the pov of koen is longer in the beginning of the chapters compared to Lowes in Bride

if we get a third book can it be about owen, please? 🥹

I wanted Kys promises to be true, but I also understand his decision as a king with responsibility towards his people.

dude, the whiplash. one moment he thinks how he was distracted by a pretty girl and now he is distracted by a pretty boy. me too Ky, me too.

I already know that Asher will be my favorite 🗡️

these song mentions in scenes are throwing me off - why are they there every time???

how does one go from thinking about s*icide to being horny???

January has a LOT of explaining to do…

they’re silly <3

How the f*uck does the commander of an entire army not realize that she simply can swap the egg, that she needs to keep safe. he’s behaving like a sixteen year old bully and not a powerful commander :(

what kind of fashion statement is a cape in a ballroom??
