I love Nona! Nona loves you!!

Muir as always keeps you on your feet not knowing what to expect and then blows your mind halfway through and you have to pick up the pieces. Can’t wait for [REDACTED]!

Content Warnings

Graphic: Body horror, Death, Gore, Gun violence, Grief, Colonisation, and War

Moderate: Blood

Minor: Eating disorder and Trafficking

Unnamed side character assumes incorrectly that one main character is a trafficker. Character dislikes to eat, describes her dislike of food; not an eating disorder but may be triggering

Once again an amazing addition to this series. All at once hilarious and nervewracking and mind blowing. 
- I don't know how Tamsyn Muir manages to make you love so many characters at once (I didn't think I'd ever love anyone as much as Gideon, but this book had so many people to love). 
- I don't have any idea who Nona is but I love her.
- I can't wait to see what happens next because I know it's going to be epic.

Comme précédemment, la première lecture laisse un goût totalement différent des relectures. Je l’ai trouvé gnangnan tout d’abord par rapport à GtN et finalement, c’est mon préféré. Nona aime tout le monde 🩷
