This book reminded me why I love to read. Heart-wrenching, giddy, tear (singular) all the things.

Although “Into the Wild” by John Krakuaer was VERY on my mind. IYKYK.


I REALLY struggled with Calla at the beginning. Frankly, she irritated me to no end. But I love her arc and now we’re friends.

I think KA did a great job of building a strong plot and developing her characters to have this book be really well rounded. Tropes were there but she wasnt relying on them to push the story forward.

I’m nervous about the rest of the series since this was so strong but we’ll see.

Highly recommend this book!
