"I eat men in suits like you for breakfast, Ajay Singh." THAT is the energy that all women should have, thank you for being an icon Raj!

I am going to have a very stressful 45 minutes finishing this book tomorrow

This is heartbreaking and breathtaking, haunting and dare, and I was hooked from the first line. It even jumpscared me with the name Aoife...even though that should not surprise me.

That line unfortunately goes hard, but VICTORIA MIDDLE NAME AVEYARD...WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT???

The stakes a very high, and Sammie and I have a very bad feeling about the outcome of this prison break....

If I had to pick a new blood ability, I would choose Ada's

Thank you, Mare for realizing that Kilorn being so into you is embarrassing...we don't need to drag that will they or wont they out when we all know the outcome

There is the theatrical little b**** boy that I know and (unfortunately) love...

Once again the audiobook has blessed us with a random accent on a random character...this time a Boston accent

And suddenly, the X-Men comp is really showing. Also, I like how the background characters aren't just teenagers, the revolution will be age inclusive!

Victoria, please stop trying to make Kilorn happen...its not going to happen (with love & respect)

“Maven will be so disappointed if the ocean kills me first.”

"With Cal's fire, my storm, and Shade's speed, nothing and no one can touch us. "

Two wild quotes!!

How do eyes cloud with blood?? Like that sounds like something very bad that should not be happening

Things are moving at a breakneck speed (thanks to the mersive), what do you mean it's only been 1 day since the explosive finale of RQ??? Also, I am liking this more than reviews would lead me to believe, so that is very good!

"an underwater boat," ... you mean like a submarine???

Only took a decade for me to actually continue this series...all thanks to a buddy read with my lovely friend Sammie!

The magical realism is certainly magical realizing

My only exposure to Malinalli is through the Spanish-period piece Carlos Rey Emperador, where she is mostly a sidepiece of Hernán Cortés. And because of the nature of the production, its very much Spanish propaganda, so I am curious to see where this goes.

Grandmothers are wonderful. Also, I love how much they were able to evoke Venice from the balsa wood. Such beautiful imagery!

I am going to finish this book tomorrow Cu Chulainn willing

So far, this is looking significantly better than book 2, which is good...I was a little nervous about this book. Also, I love Gem.

Well, at least I'm screaming at his parents to get divorced a lot less....

The Hallmark comparison was very apt for these vibes

Mare, in the process of getting betrayed by someone she trusted and loved: Also, Mare: "I can fix him!

[ Peter Griffin voice: ] "But since we're all gonna die, there's one more secret I feel I have to share with you: I do not care for Cal."

Also, Mare having to explain what a coup is to the literal rebels is just so funny

I can't say I've ever read anything quite like this, it's a mix of trauma and humour that has me on the edge of my seat for what comes next

Sometimes I forget how futuristic this book is, because it also almost feels like historical fantasy

Even though I am on winter break, I am taking a 3-quarter-long class, so reading over break it is

Is Maven's last straw going to be the rebellion not going as planned, or being called Mavey repeatedly? Who knows, but my money is on the second option
