Other than absurd lack of communication leading to totally preventable misunderstandings, this book was PHENOMENAL.

 Content Warnings: Blood, violence, death, pregnancy, war, confinement, animal death, toxic relationships, toxic friendships, murder, and some minimal sexual content. Mention of: cannibalism, abortion, abandonment, child abuse, and child neglect.

Holy crap. I DEVOURED this book. I needed to know what was going to happen with Jude, Madoc, Carden, ...I mean really everyone. There were some people that Jude forgave that I'm still mad at. New friends that I LOVE and wish I got more of.

Definitely so happy that my friend Roni rec'ed this to me, and gifted it to me 🥰, so I could experience this world!
