This was a bittersweet read. I loved reading about the relationship between Paige and Warden but the parts about her trauma were difficult to read. It was very thoughtfully done and I really appreciate the development of both their characters in this after the song rising.

Loved being back in the Bone Season world with this novella.

However, I did not expect that dark tone the story has taken here, but it is well done and well justified, considering what Paige has gone through in TBS3.

Curious to see how the story picks up in the Mask Falling now.
