Rated 3.75 on fable solely due to lack of much of any real answers I was hoping for that I had from the last book.

Now I just have so many more???

I really appreciated how thoughtful this book felt when approaching the "newness" stage of mourning - when it's been some time, but not nearly enough time at all.

Nora is processing grief in such a genuine and realistic way. She is the heart and soul of this story, and this really is such a character piece with a hard focus on the thoughts that spiral where grief and love parallel each other in such a way - a deep papercut sort of desperation.

The way this book reads is not for everyone. It's mostly conversations and introspection and I can see how a lot of people, unfamiliar with what Nora is experiencing, would be annoyed by her internal dialogue.

I read her and I hated her! 🥹

I found myself going *yeesh* a lot in this book.

Sometimes smutty reads can catch a lot of flack and their plots go unmentioned due to the spice existing.

This is not one of those times. There is no plot. This was simply unenjoyable for me. And MMCs name was Ryat?
