"Hence, the mimosas." us now my favourite out-of-context quote.

!!!!! Dishonor on me and my cow for only getting it now!!! Oh dang oh dang.

What. Is. Going. On.

WHAT THE FRIKFRAK

AAAAAAAAAHHHH

Doing a cheeky re-read because I was in dire need of some pro trans witchery.

WHAT IS HAPPENING no don't tell me AAAAH

I'm enjoying the book - but having a major plot twist that happens halfway through the book included on the back flap kinda defeats the point of a plot twist.

What do you MEAN there's still 39% of book to read?? I HAVE ZERO CLUE WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT AND I LOVE IT

I'M GAGGED

Wat een zintuiglijke taal!

Listening to the Apprehension audiobook and dang, Mary Robinette is a gifted audiobook narrator besides an amazing writer.

Holy smokes what an absolute amazing opening chapter. I'm hooked!

Having worked in secondary education for nearly a decade, and being a fantasy / magic girlie for as long as I can remember? This books feels very explicitly written for me.

Dang, his books are just a masterclass in world building.

Oh no no, I think I know what's happening 😬

I just want to keep Jade, my infodumping special-interest-having punk girlie, safe.

AAAAAAH I KNEW IT YESSSSS #nospoilerthoughts

This book is truly laugh-out-loud funny!

I don't trust that briar witch!

This is such a great example of how an audiobook narrator can really enhance the narrative. When blues songs are mentioned, the narrator actually sings them! And the story itself is just fantastic.

I'm so impressed by the way Slatter gets you hooked right at the start, yet doesn't show her hand. Reading her work feels like following a trail of breadcrumbs through a dark and misty forest, forever looking over your shoulder because you're *sure* you're not alone.

Dang, what an intriguing way to start this story!

The reviews about this book are so different; it just made me so curious to experience it for myself.
