“‘I think they did love us,’ Ruben says finally. ‘Only… not enough.’
And I believe him.
But still I say, a hollow echo of a thousand catechism lessons: ‘It’s right to love the gods more than anyone.’
‘It is,’ he agrees, and my heart thuds with sudden surprise. ‘But even so, it wasn’t right how little those nuns loved you.’ “

Okay, I usually love the way Hodge writes romance and I still love Lia as a character, but you cannot convince me Lia and Ruven belong together. All they've done this whole book is argue about who's right about the Gods and try to turn the other to their side. This isn't enemies to lovers, this is just 2 people that straight up hate each other. And Ruven betrays her like every 3 seconds? What is the point, genuinely?

My current predictions:
-Ruven is the Queen's brother mentioned earlier and he actually froze her in time to stop his sister's tyranny
-None of this is actually happening, Lia has been bound to the castle like Ruven and all the events starting with her killing Ruven are all happening in her head
