I knew it was coming, there was 20 pages left and nothing was resolved right- but stillllll... thankfully its a 3 part series, so im just hoping that the next book (siege and storm, on it rn DO NOT SPOIL) will have a better ending- plussss ik that nikolai is joining the seriesss ;00000 ANYWAYS I LOVED IT, JUST THAT MINUS POINT FOR THE ENDING BEING LIKE UM..
