Since this is my most anticipated book of the series, I’m praying it meets expectations — and so far, it’s the best in the series. The tension is incredible (kind of like Rebel In the Deep, this one is actually VERY plot-heavy), it’s turned into more of a thriller than a romance, and Zeus and Hera are giving us EVERYTHING 👏🔥 I’m obsessed

I have never realized how badly I want to celebrate Christmas in Edinburgh until this very moment 😭

Hands down the best part about this book: it showcases the bravery and self-love it takes to finally cut your toxic family out of your life, and does so in a way that champions the people forced to make those kinds of decisions, rather than pandering to the harmful “but they’re your family” rhetoric many abuse survivors receive. Well done ❤️‍🩹

That dedication was written to me specifically. “For the people who were pissed that I made Zeus and Hera book nine instead of book three.” They were talking about me. I am “people.” 😤

Breaking news: the absolutely not-neurotypical person with a special interest in linguistics creates YET ANOTHER fictitious language for a story he tells his children. Tolkien, we love you 😂 the neurodivergent icon we deserve

If I needed any further confirmation that Tolkien was a doting father, this is it 🥹 this is so wholesome and wonderful

This book is stressing me the fuck out 😭

I can only take this book in like 30-page chunks at a time, it is stressing me OUT

Whoaaaa, the theme of how history gets rewritten based on what narratives people in power want everyone to believe at the time…feels very relevant right now 👀

Okay, the way she wrote the contrast between how they see themselves (Owen as a coward, Una as a monster), vs how they see each other (brave and ethereal and charming and lovely), is warming my heart so much 🥹

Okay I know she’s a teenager, but f*** you María, none of this is Alba’s fault, how about we don’t blame the woman who is possessed and has been able to consent to NOTHING this whole book

I F**KIN KNEW IT
