Loved reading about Rune and Jo. Jo was a badass and I loved how she took care of herself and sacrificed for her brother.
Also loved Rune’s story and how stubborn he was to push away his feelings. The only reason for no 5 stars is because Rune was stubborn for a bit too long. I would’ve liked to see him develop a little more fully.

Josie is a gem. Rune doesn’t make the best decisions but in the end, redeems himself. I finished book 6 and jumped to this one since technically you can read them out of order, but I think I did myself a bit of a disservice doing so. Felt a little out of the loop on things, esp since Nïx is so central to this plot and I didn’t really know what was going on Accession-wise at this point. Overall though, steamy as usual and I felt like these two had a more emotional connection than IAD6 I had just read.
