Hazel has three lifetimes (three candles)

"There are limits to what even a god can do.
I only collect the souls of those departed flames. I cannot blow them out myself. That's what you're meant to do. That's why you see the deathshead. You can act where I cannot. Your hands can carry out the work I wish I could do. But this is what happens when you don't."

EACH LIFE IS A CANDLE 🥹

The god of death sees Kieron as a threat, so death by Hazel’s hand it is. WHUT

Is kieron going to die?!

1) healing her parents meant killing them

2) she can see the ghosts of the people she kills

3) Merrick is jealous that she loves a BOY (Kieran) & Kieran wants to propose

Hazel is treating her first patient! (And has learned that if someone is close to death, they can see her godfather)

"Why would you want someone to heal sick people? Don't you... don't you want us all to die?"

This book has me in a chokehold

Have I been intimidated for nearly 2 years that this book is nearly 500 pages?

Was me being intimidated silly? Obviously. I fear 500 pages may not be enough for how much I love this book already
