I think I adored this book even more the second time. The emotion that the authors manage to pack into every word is astounding, and even though I knew what was gonna happen, I was filled with fear and anger and heartbreak and hope. I also understood the story so much better this time and it had an even bigger impact on me—the concept is just so cool, and all the little teases at battles and events and assassinations and inventions were fascinating. I can’t recommend this book enough. Fierce, broken Red and wicked, hungry Blue own my heart forever <33
