I listened to this on audio which I highly recommend! Catherine Ho and Cindy Kay are incredible.

Both of the heroines in this book are so intense and amazing (won’t swear but they are hardcore fierce). But I have to say that the Eris chapters were everything to me. Just listening to her inner dialogue and take no bs attitude made her chapters so fun to read. 

I also loved how the fierceness covered deep vulnerability for both Eris and Sona, and how over time they were able to get closer and see each other’s soft spots.

The found family of Gearbreakers is also one of my favourite things about this book. The banter, the complicated dynamics between misfits. The loyalty and disagreements. How they keep fighting, keep pushing for what they feel is right.

And the fight scenes! It’s a dark world, and there is a lot of violence, but it feels justified. 

And the cliffhanger nearly killed me. I’m already jumping into book 2.
