I honestly loved this book! It was kinda slow in the beginning, but NEZHA?? I have a feeling he’s going to redeem himself in the next book. But now that he’s heir to the House of Yin, he might change. 

Oh my gosh, don’t get me started on how I was spoiled, I just know that the next book is going to take my organs out and tangle them, and put it back in the wrong way.

Jesus. While I found Rin to be a pity party in the first half, I was completely unprepared to swept away by the second half of this book. There were so many moments that on retrospect were obvious, but while I was in the thick of it I could not see coming. Ready to devour The Burning God like the Phoenix has taught me!!
