I always get so embarrassed when I cry in public over a book. It’s the best though

Yes, “hold fiercely” gets me right in the gut, every time. I was thrilled to get this one in my mailbox, and it grabbed me right away and never let me go. I loved the backstory on Talis—just loved Talis all to pieces, really. (And Evie! Have some cake. Awesome!) Good point about how do you come up with a villain worse than an omnipotent robot! And yes, she nails it. Loved Michael, loved FX, was totally surprised by the demands of the (non-spoilery) faction.

What do you think about the ending? Think there’s room for a sequel? I feel like Xie might still have a role to play (or is that just me being wishful?) It’s like the first one, which could have just ended there, but I’m so glad it didn’t.

I CAN. NOT. WAIT. to read this book. I still don’t know how I missed it on NetGalley because I would have snapped it up in a heartbeat!

Books that make you cry on the bus are awesome! They don’t come along very often I find. And just for that reason, you have me considering reading this series.

Okay, you piqued my interest at “a faction of Canadians attack”. Erin Bow…bells ringing madly…is this the ‘Plain Kate’ author? If so, I think you may have solved a Christmas book dilemma for me…

Okay. Ready for a book (or two!) like this.
