I loved this book! I think Katy Rose Pool is quickly becoming a favourite author for me. Her characters are just so fantastic! Not to mention that she does a great job of giving the reader the information for backstories and the world with it feeling seamlessly weaved in - at least to me. And the twists in this book were well done! I loved the reveals.
My one small criticism is that I felt like I learned things integral to a character a little ways into this book. Which is nothing bad, but it kind of had me stopping for a second trying to remember if I already knew that detail but I don't think I did... it didn't take away from the experience for me, but was something I noticed. But I LOVED these characters. Marlow and Adrius are fantastic, I want more o Gemma, and PROTECT SWIFT AT ALL COSTS.
