    Ace of Spades
    4.0
    Enjoyment: 4.0Quality: 3.5Characters: 3.5Plot: 4.0

    The pacing felt very slow, and more than once I've wanted to shake the characters and ask them to start making smarter decisions 🤦‍♀️ I also wasn't particularly emotionally attached to the mcs (although Devon is such a sweetheart and deserves the world!). And yet. Every new chapter had me mentally pulling out a cork board and red string—only to throw it all out the window because WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK‽‽‽ I was STRESSED OUT.

    very satisfying ending though!

  • Chain of Thorns (The Last Hours, #3)
    Thoughts from 14% (page 94)

    Thomastair are my favourite, ugh. Thomas' stupid little fire message (Cheers, Christopher!) made me laugh out loud. He's so adorably flustered and Alastair, in contrast, is so confident and put together. Those two have been my favourite part of this entire series since Chain of Gold and I wish we got more than just handful of chapters of their interactions. Don't get me wrong, I think The Last Hours features Cassie's best cast of characters yet and I am deeply interested in several of them, but oh, what I would not give for more Thomastair.
