1. This bundle was an incredible deal for three full-on novels.
2. This series is incredibly topical in ways that added to the sense of unease. There's a feel in the first book of "alternate history where fascists are riding" like Man in the High Castle or the Jo Walton series....only these fascists aren't the Nazis we saw before. They are the Nazis we have right this second.
3. Parts were agonizing because of item 2, but at the end I felt a sense of hope. It may not be pretty, but there can be life after this horror if we are able to be in a position where we can choose to survive.

The first book was not the romance I was expecting, and that was disconcerting, but I was still very interested in the story. Then the character I was most concerned about didn't figure into the second book for most of its length. The third book upended all the situations and relationships, which was certainly exciting/nerve-wracking. The third book also ultimately delivered the emotional moment I'd been wanting all along, so I have no complaints and would recommend this trilogy wholeheartedly.
I adore Aristide.
