Wow. I wont lie, it took me a while to get into this book, although its not the books fault, its tiktoks for spoiling the end for me. I knew what was to happen and it made me not want to read on because i knew i wasnt going to like how it ended. I always knew
Spoiler Tayrn was fishy, although I was sad about the Ghost's betrayl.
It definitely picked up half way through and Jude's badassness kept me reading.
 4 stars as of just finishing
