This was a win. I enjoyed this waaay more than I thought I would. The plot - amazing, the writing - incredible. All in all this was great. I loved the characters and the discussions throughout the book. It kept me intrigued all the way through! So ready for the next books in the series. New fave!

Did it matter? One life. A drop in a vast, vast ocean of hundreds, thousands, millions.
   Yes, pounded the hollow of her heart. Yes, cried her wolves. 
   It mattered. All of them mattered. All of the hundreds, thousands, millions. Vast, vast...
   Would it ever end? 
   Five, just five. Focus on them. Make it manageable. Babushka, Mama, Miriam—
