Getting more complicated, which means more fatiguing. But it also means it’s all coming to a head now. Looking forward to finishing the series.

This book very much feels like the second in a series, but not in a bad way. A lot happens in the book, but it feels sort of like a stepping-stone to get to the resolution of the third book. The 2nd and 3rd books are some of the best depiction in literature of PTSD that I've ever read.
