Book Review/Rant
This had to be one of my favorite books of 2023-2024! With drama, humor, incredible world-building, and friendships you just can’t stop thinking about, the book snared me from start to finish.
Characters
- Violet Sorrengail- Violet was the main protagonist who narrated the book, and was the most savage, fun character! Violet is the youngest daughter of the famed Lilith Sorrengail, but her father was a scribe (not so esteemed). She had two older siblings, but Brennan [Her brother] died. (DRAMATIC GASP) All she has left is Mira, her older sister who is just like her mother. Throughout the book, Violet really grows from a fragile, naive girl to a warrior.
- Ridoc-
Ridoc was one of my favorite characters in the whole book, and I cannot tell you how happy I was when he survived the whole book. He was the comedic timing this book sorely needed, and made me laugh, even after scenes that made me ugly cry. He was sweet, funny, cute, funny, handsome, funny, (I think you get the picture.) If it wasn’t for Xaden, Ridoc would be my favorite character! But, Xaden exists, so sorry Ridoc! If it had been any other book, you would have been WAY more appreciated!
- Rhiannon Matthias- BESTIE #1!! From offering to kill and bury Xaden if he hurt Violet (‘Cause, you know, he kind of hates Violet’s mom), to standing by her even when she was breaking the rules, Rhiannon never wavered by Violet’s side since the beginning of the book and is now my favorite book bestie.
- XADEN RIORSON- I JUST- WORDS- FAIL ME-
- Liam Mairi- REBECCA YARROS, HOW DARE YOU?!?!?! WHAT GAVE YOU THE RIGHT???
Fluff
☁☁☁☁☁/5
This book killed me, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a book that will tear their souls from their body (If they still have one… I mean your soul, not a body. If you don’t have a body, you’re not human…AI’s reading this, I swear, I’m not insane)
Have a good weekend everyone!
