#saion

After what felt like forever, I finally got the brothers and Hunter finished. I know there's flaws, I'm still learning and trying to figure out Procreate. These are pretty much expiremental, so it's like why they look slightly different from one another. Anyway, here's a quick poll to see who is everyone's favorite is.

Saion: Sure.

Saion: *drops baby doll*

Now that you have been warned…Jennifer what the fuck? It is now November 16, 2022, 2:31 am and I’m and flabbergasted. I floundered. I am knocked sideways, nonplused even.

Five fucking stars to you because I physically couldn’t not put down this book. The emotions I fucking went through all for it to stop at that. You will be hearing from my therapist but oh my word.

First, RIP Ector, his death made this book so real, the way life can be sniffed out like it means nothing, so thankful Aios could be saved.

Ash and Sera. That’s it.

The tension, the passion, the emotions with these two ugggggggghhh. I was fucking drowning in them. I couldn’t get enough of these two and the way they built back that trust that was broken and became stronger. And don’t motherfucking tell me that primal ain’t in love…he said I love you sera in every fucking language and action stopping short of running around the house of haides with sera’s face on a sign screaming “I love you I love you I love you!!!”

Also I love the relationship Sera has with his guards, mostly Rhain. They’re the ones in that friend no one expected to be close but are because they understand the deep shit and struggles of life. Also love Saion with her as well.

Nektas is one of the realest and I wanna ride that draken’s dick because of it. This beast was instigating left right and centre, saying not but the realest and most obvious shit when they didn’t want to admit it and for that he’ll for ever be meyaah draken. Idk who that Aurelia bitch is but she better take care of him. Also with Sera’s confession, which I talked about in a different post, go there for details.

Sera, Jadis and Reaver. I love, love love the relationship we see between these three. Partly because of the embers but they way they Jade and Reaver felt safe around her to shift? UNTOUCHED. The way she held Jade so close when they slept? PRECIOUS MOMENTS. And when Nek said that she probably reminded Jade of her mom, that’s why I decided that the relationship will be so much more. The bond between someone who took up the flame to be a mother figure and a daughter is unmatched and I need to see more.

Attes…I’ll talk about him in another post because this it too long and I want there to be an open discussion to it.

Veses should be left to the shades, nymphs, dakkais. That bitch deserves a slowly and torturous death, especially after kicking Reaver.

Thankful for my girl Bele who came, got laid (Aios😏😉) served and slayed.

Thank god for my girl Tori (Sotoria) who lives in Sera and bout to fuck up Kolis whole days for months and saving our Queen consort. A soul chased for hundreds of years is a nasty one and I can’t wait for her and Sera to bring that shit gold palace down.

Please look away now if you haven't already read it and don't want spoilers.

My very real (and dramatized) reactions to certain scenes from the first three chapters of ALITF:

Things I liked:

-    I liked the ending of this book a lot.  This is where I really felt it depart from the other series its connected to.  Like I know its gonna be ok, but the drama of the ending was great.  The fact that Nyktos now has to learn to love this girl who was going to kill him or the world is gonna end was such a great ending.  

Things I didn't like:

-     I really felt like I was just reading a different version of A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire.  It wasn't different enough for me to feel like I was reading a new story.  Don't get me wrong, I liked the book.  But I'm hoping the next ones start to differentiate it from the other books more.  

Overall:

-     The book was good!  I’m hoping that the next books in this series really pick up the slack from this book.  But that feels like a bit of theme for JLA books.  This is how I felt after reading From Blood and Ash, and ended up LOVING the series.  I hope the next books in this series really clear up some of the confusion that I felt from this book.
