Tahereh spent 261 pages throwing non-stop Adam/Juliette problems, Warner thoughts, Supreme Commander, Omega Point, powers, secrets and now Anderson-related family drama revelations into a blender💀 Thought I was clueless about the direction of this story, and now I’m finally getting a little idea..

Kenji, my voice of reason. 😆

“You are such an iDiOt,”

“What the hell is wrong with you? Are you even listening to me? Are you InSaNe?”

“Yeah it’s called projecting, remember? Didn’t Castle explain this to you already? —not all abilities are the same, but maybe if you manage to stop being a dUmbasS long enough not to die, I might be able to teach you one day”

“Because you’re a dUmbAsS.”

Been “eyeing” this book since 2014 lol can’t believe I’m finally gonna dive into this in 2026!!

“It’s okay, it’s okay,” I cry. Lying for him, as he did for me.

And with his last breath, he nods.

Umm what, I was not prepared. I fear this is only the beginning of Auren’s real suffering. Sobbing rn idc

Sipping from shine
Your lips like romance

Another tear falls from my eye, the haunting sound of his voice a long ago memory so far away....'

I have so many questions about Auren and Midas' past. So she was only 15 when King Midas found her, and he was still a vigilante. How did they end up like this? My heart hurts for Auren.

I think I just found my first truly putdownable book in my ever-growing physical library. And it's this one. The worst part is I WANT to like it. I really do. But my god, I feel like nothing exciting is happening and I don't know how much longer I can keep going??

Still wondering where the plot is going and whether this book plans on giving me any romance at all. I feel like this book is just all vibes right now.

Small town vibes. Autumn vibes. Haunted vibes.

But plot???

Romance???

HeLLoO???

How do I even describe this book? I'm 5 chapters in and I'm still curious, but also kinda bored, but also not bored enough to stop reading? 😭 The haunted house vibes are intriguing, I'm still holding out hope for some romance, but damn... I've fallen asleep twice in 3hrs already.
