per my spreadsheet:
all i put in my spreadsheet was 'damn dude'

so many new and wonderful characters and story lines introduced in this book, so excited to keep reading and see where this story takes me

spice 🌶  - a 2 🌶  spicy (romance.io scale)
length - just right
reading speed - read in 2 weeks 2 days
did it make me cry? - this is the one that did it.

I think this book lost some steam in comparison to the first 2 books. I think it's mostly because there is so much world building and necessary character introductions. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was Manon's POV. It just felt like I had to push through her chapters to get to the good stuff.
