Haha, I didn't expect this. Maybe I haven't read that many books of this sort, but I found it AMAZING. Yes, I was sad A LOT, but I just loved how Rin developed as a character. It felt natural, realistic even. She's not some ideal smartass, she's an arrogant, wild and impulsive girl full of PTSD and trauma.
I am scared and excited for the journey ahead!
