I just finished this and was like… all of it was so obvious ?? lol like at no point was I shocked by any of the twists haha I thought the 2nd one was just ….. fine. I’ll still continue with the series but also I agree- very slow moving / boring parts. Definitely a filler book. I agree it sound have been a prequel!

I … did not clock it immediately. I thought it was her aunt or sister.

It felt like a miscommunication trope between the author and the reader…like no way it was never mentioned that Andreas was a prince prior to him becoming king

Dang you were quick. I stayed confused. Like why aren't these two meeting up already 🤣... But yes Evie needs to be left safe somewhere for now on.

Girl you were clocked the f in because I was like ohhh hes of noble family how fun 💙💙💙💙😂 I thought I was smart by thinking odessa was caspias sister & was pissed the whole time they wouldn’t bump into each other!! I was waiting for them to run into each other and have a “woah you look like me” moment 😂

I really loved Andreas and Caspia's love better than Odessa and Ransom's.

I’m an idiot. I am so stupid. I never clocked it. I was GOBSMACKED at the end. I never put it to and to together and I think because I’m so naive sometimes it made this book REALLY good for me 🤦🏼♀️😂

I did not clock it was her mom until about 40/50% I initially thought it was her cousin or her sister

You clocked it faster than I did that she was her mom. It literally took me until almost the end of the book to put the final pieces together. I was so annoyed they weren’t meeting almost the whole time 😂 then I felt stupid when I figured it out 🤦🏼♀️

We basically had the exact same thoughts, I was confused as to why it took so long for the book to put it all together because I thought it was so obvious. 😂

It also bugs me when authors skip over the important milestones in characters’ lives like a wedding scene!! (SJM I’m looking at you too)

Spot on rant! I was waiting for you to rage about the use of “suns” and “moons” for “days” and “nights” because that drove me absolutely bonkers. They have the modern words for evvvvverything else? But days and nights was too much? Sstttooopppp

💯 Like…I will read the last book- but I will throw all the books away if it seriously ends with Odessa Crux killing Ransom.

I thought the timelines were the same and Caspia was going to run into Odessa. I didn’t clock they were related. But I’m not great at all at guessing plot twists 😂
