Gryphon?! First?! I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. Atlas is sus, I don’t trust a guy who does everything for a woman he’s only just met regardless of biological bonding or w/e. North is warming up, and Gabe is the ideal guy.

Still super compelling (even if I'm still not loving Oli as a character). I just am not a fan of the sulky, self-obsessed teenaged attitude... But, she's 19 so I guess that's what I signed up for? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Really enjoying the progression of the story though. This book really added to the world building and gave us a lot more insight into the depths of the Resistances foothold in their society.

Continuing to rank the guys after each book.

Bonded Rankings:

1. Gryphon (💞)
2. North
3. Gabe
4. Atlas
5. Nox (still hasn't redeemed himself & added major gaslighting to the list of his BS. Honestly, I'll be really disappointed if that doesn't all get addressed.)
