 Do I recommend this series? 100%
Do I recommend reading a book with genocide and ethnic cleansing in it right now?
100% I do not.
I cried so hard I gave myself a headache more than once
It was still as amazing as I remember but I need to go stare at a wall in a dark room for an indeterminable amount of time.
