First of all, THAT PLOT TWIST??? 10/10. Did not see it coming at all. But, also, JAIL FOR THAT ENDING. WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT, MARGARET OWEN?! DO MY TEARS MEAN NOTHING TO YOU?

RAGNE! I missed her so much. It taking more than 70% of the book for her to make an appearance is CRIMINAL.

Not the ribbon 😭😭 I hate Ozkar for that; there was NO REASON

If I had a nickel for every time I've read a book where a character creates a fake illness to shut down a brothel, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. Looking at you, crooked kingdom 👀

What the HELL did I just read? If Irmgard does not suffer severely by the end of this series, I'm gonna riot.

WAIT. Has she just met some of her siblings??? Like, let's see: they're farmers, their sibling count so far is 8 (and that may not be all!), and she told them about the specific things she wanted to tell her brothers and sisters in the first book. It seems too coincidental 👀
