It’s been a while since I’ve last done one of these, so I think it’s the perfect time to do another one. Let’s see what I think after the first chapters!

I was very lucky to receive an eARC through Netgalley and I’m excited to share my thoughts with you all. Even though I do think this one will be pretty hard to review. Let’s dive in!
