"...in my head, you're so pristine. I just wanted to not get anything on you." // "I think you're the same thing in three different lights."
If anyone needs I will be screaming about Nataha Pulley from the top of a lighthouse. This was action fuelled and jam packed with plot while also being character driven and slow to the point of the anticipation crawling in so carefully you didn't realize how invested you were in everyone until their lives were in mortal peril ( dozens of times).
Every character - even the short lived ones- are so well written that you can't help but immediately understand and feel for them.
I would lay my life on the line for Kite. Everyone needs a hug and about 900 days of rest.
The writing - in particular the way she writes the characters physically existing beside each other is so well done. I highly suggest going in with no understanding of what's going on and being okay with being confused for a bit - it's well worth it.
My first Natasha Pulley book and absolutely not my last - as soon as the mail arrives.
