I love how this is progressing! I don't want it to end and of course, I also must know what happens next. It's not many authors though who would introduce a brand new important character at this point in the story. It makes it feel like a lived in story rather than formulaic. Yes, there are a lot of characters, and as a fantasy, I'm often lost, but Maggie feels very accessible and expositional and I love her!

What on earth would you do if you got transported into your favorite book series but the moment you got there things have changed?? Some things because of you but some having nothing to do with you at all?! I'm so disoriented now!! This part was insane though! I've not been this emotional over a book in a long time. The authors are not holding back and it's making me feel a lot! I'm already scared to finish...

SIGH!!! While the twist did indeed shock and surprise me and it took me a while to get my bearings, I do not feel the devastation the book obviously wants me to feel!! Where are we going to go from here? And more importantly, why are SO MANY things different from the books she knows?? She's right about a bunch of things but the things that are different... Who the flip is this Maggie person?! What's going on?!?!

This is so delightful, I will be buying it immediately! Better than Game of Thrones and right on par with Outlander. I am dying to know what's going on with Maggie and Reynald. No one spoil it!!! Now I'm speculating about WHY she's there: Is her purpose to fix something?? To help the author get over writer's block?? To retcon some mistake??? Is the author stuck there too?!?! Is she the author?!?!?!?!

I can tell I'm going to absolutely love this entire series. I freaking love these characters! And this concept!! I'm very freaking confused about how Maggie got here. Did I misunderstand something in the beginning about her having woken up in other people's bodies before?? She seemed very confused to wake up in Kair Toren. Was it only because she woke up as herself? Anyway, I don't care, this is awesome!
