I love this series.
This world is the one true escape. This book has made me feel every emotion I have. I felt it deeper than I thought I could feel a book story and I fear I am never going to find a book that gets to me as much as this devastatingly beautiful world did.

I really like this series of JLAs. I do think it’s kind of repetitive of the FBAA storyline and characters, BUT I think that’s okay because I kind of like this story better. And I think it also helps show the parallel between Sera and Poppy’s stories since they’re ultimately connected and related. 

This story started off slow and I felt like they were having a lot of sex (don’t get me wrong I love shut), but there wasn’t much plot development. It did pick up in the last half and once that happened I had a hard time putting the book down. The ending kind of snuck up on me and I felt left a lot of plot lines and points open that I thought would be resolved but I guess that’s because there’s going to be another book lol so I’ll just wait to find out! Overall it was a good story and plot with a twist at the end I wasn’t expecting, and I can’t wait to see what happens in the next book!

Can we get the next books now? Please? Cause I am NOT OKAY. Is this the part where she goes into stasis? Or does that happen in the next book? Now I want to reread FBAA damn it.

I got so many thought on this, I don’t think I can put them all into words… I just know, I knew it before as well, that this series is even better than FBAA and will be one of my all time favorites of my life to come. 
Don’t get me wrong, FBAA is astonishing, but I happen to enjoy this series even more.
I LOVE Nyktos, Sera, Saion, Ector 🥺 Aios, Bele, Rhahar, Rhain. And the Draken!! Nektas, Reaver and Jadis 🥺 they have my heart, all of them.
The world building was fantastic in this book, the character development… oh Sera and Nyktos are everything. I want to claw my way into this book and this world and protect them with everything I have.
The prophecies, the gods, the betrayals, the fighting, surviving, just everything!
Honestly, in the beginning, I thought I finally understood the prophecy, after reading TWOTQ and then rereading it in this book, I thought I knew what was going on, but then the ending happened. My mind is blown how Jennifer came up with all this. How? Just how?
I knew something was about to happen when the ending neared but I wasn’t prepared for that… left me reeling and I cannot wait for book three!!
The spicy scenes 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨 Daddy Nyktos knows what he does although he says he doesn’t. Still, all of them felt bigger, you know because of Sera‘s feelings being described to the reader and while I can acknowledge that you would refer to some scenes as just f***, I don’t think they were. They were always bigger. Pleasure for the sake of pleasure my ass, just like Sera realized 😏
Can’t wait for Ash to wreak havoc in the next book.
