I’m going to have to edit this when I’m more coherent but what an absolutely wild ride. It’s so dark and messy and absolutely different from what I usually read. It was also so beautiful and painful despite it’s darkness and the infuriatingness of Jaq’s devotion to Lily. The absolutely beauty of the sister-ship of our crew was magnificent. It’s quite the read.
I couldn’t stop reading. I devoured it in one sitting.
