This one left me with way more questions than the previous two! I really loved Adam's character growth and the journey we went on together with Blue as she explored her identity and potential. The more I read about these characters the more I care about them and the more precious their friendship feels to me. The plot is solid as well - as I mentioned, I have many questions but I believe I'll get my answers in the last installment. For some reason though, the previous two installments had a better hold on me.

I think the most surprising/jarring thing to me is not everything going on but the fact that these teenage boys just speak Latin like that😂💀 (a lot of people have Latin class in high school but it's usually not sufficient to speak the language lol)

I'm really happy I picked this up. I was intimidated by the published date, assumed the language would be difficult, and the message would go over my head, but it's not the case. I learned a lot from reading this. I loved that the author eased us into the story by describing the social and geographical climate. As someone who knows little about Kenya, even though the author would've been within his rights to do so, I still appreciated that he didn't thrust us into the world with the assumption that we had the necessary background knowledge. I felt emotional reading this, especially because it's rooted in reality.
