I have never been both so happy and sad at the end of a book. I had full body goosebumps the last few chapters! The story was wrapped up so well at the end, and I can’t wait for the second to be released! I loved the story of Calla, Grey and the troupe of Galen den’ Mora as they broke down stigma, social constructs and gender stereotypes all while making the world more beautiful with their songs. The progress of finding Calla’s true being was tender and completely relatable for someone who’s been down similar paths of gender and sexual identity.
