My Review:
5/5
Yes I still find Essy to be incredibly annoying. And magic or not I found Tristan to be completely ridiculous in this book. Loved Ruan though, he and the Queen Mother were a nice treat! And of course Branny slipping further was also really awesome, though tragic. I was blown away by that ending and actually SCREAMED like OMG. I can’t even. I’m really not over it!! Branny basically giving up her humanity and not caring for Essy anymore was honestly… Like I really loved it but also felt such sorrow for poor Branny. She’s always put her love of Essy basically above her own well-being. Essy didn’t care, she’s a brat. Bleh.
This book releases August 27th!
