Spoiler
You’re telling me that Tierney chose to CONTINUE A DEAD MAN’S BLOODLINE over LIBERATING ALL OF THE WOMEN IN THE COUNTY - DEAD AND ALIVE?Spoiler
A lot of the book felt rushed and super obvious. It was extremely YA. I’m disappointed because I think it could’ve been written better. All of this to say that I did read this book in 3 days. I was hooked. I’m just baffled by the ending. So many unanswered questions.Graphic: Violence, Gore, Pregnancy, Forced institutionalization, Pedophilia, Slavery, Blood, Death, Grief, Kidnapping, Vomit, Animal death, Bullying, Misogyny, Murder, and Sexism

PLEASE READ THIS, here’s a few reasons;
•Hunger games but feminist but also •stand alone and no love triangle or technology
•Enemies to lovers but not quite
•Friends to lovers but not quite
•Silent revolution
•Bring down the patriarchy
•Really strong and badass main character
• amazing plot twist
• every woman has an amazing power within themselves
• beautiful family bond
• low-key lgbtqia+ representative (with phobia so beware)
• so well written
• really empowering
• Almost none named male characters
• “trust no one, not even yourself”
