I love reading from Oli's bonds pov. She's thinks very differently from Oli & her slightly terrifying inner monologue is highly entertaining!

I just realized that Oli & Sage didn't spend very much time together in this book, despite living together. I figured it was due to being with their bonds, but maybe that wasn't the reason. I refuse to believe she was faking their entire friendship.

I keep thinking about how Nox talked to Oli's bond without her knowing about it. I'm dying to know how that conversation went & what their bond's talked to each other about the time Nox let them spend time together & his own bond blocked him out, so not even he knows what went down.

I wonder what kind of trauma Nox went through that fucked him up so badly....

I don't know how Oli can get past the fact that he must have known about the horrible things the resistance does, yet didn't seem to have a problem with it until it was HIS bond being hurt! It's not good enough to just care about what happens to your bond but be okay with them killing & torturing anyone else! She doesn't even ask him about it!

I can't believe Atlas didn't come to Oli right away if he was so intent on finding her, especially after seeing the videos of everything they put her through. It still makes no sense that his dad didn't know who her other bonds were since North contacted Atlas to let him know he'd found Oli.

I'm trying really hard, but I still don't understand how Silas & Atlas' dad didn't know Oli was his bond. Doesn't the blood work tell you EXACTLY who's in your bond group? So why would Silas need to torture her to try to learn who her bonds were???? My head hurts, I'm so confused!!!

I can't believe she feels guilty that Atlas is betraying his family! The whole resistance are MONSTERS! How can she not be more upset with him? I KNEW he was acting way too understanding about her running, as if he knew something the others didn't. But I still want to know EXACTLY what he knew & what he's done.

I can't believe she didn't look into his mind to figure out the truth even though Atlas WANTED her to!

How can she be so sure about Atlas after finding out who his dad is? But how much does Atlas really know about what happened to her?
