A symphony of Flesh and Snow takes us on a journey, not only to discover more about Reen and Pandora, but just as much about ourselves.
This chapter brings a totally new and undiscovered banter between Reen and Pandora, and also a rollercoaster of emotions. It is nice to be a part of the developments between not only them, but also the knights of Eraminia. What really stood out to me is how Shaina effortlessly weaves the happy moments and sad moments into the story, and how self acceptance is a really big part in this chapter.
We all have scars, internally, ingrained in our mind, externally, visible on our bodies. Both of which we have to embrace, acknowledge and accept. In a Symphony of Flesh and Snow we get reminded of the beauty and the hardships this entails, we get to experience the struggles and the journey Reen and Pandora, but also Ziri and Astin, and even Walkyer, have to go through. The ending had me flabbergasted, and I am not afraid to admit I had tears running over my cheeks more than once.
