Typically this assortment (the final 2 publications particularly) has made me anxious. Pen’s personalities are very psychological which is what makes this assortment stand out from others within the type. There’s precise, abrasive, uncooked character growth.

However the older she received, the angrier she obtained, in addition to the much more hopeless I entered making an attempt to neglect her, in addition to I merely wanted this to be over.
Completely nothing improved together with her. It simply decayed.

Kaleb is a goddamned psychopath. Simply belief me on this, as any person who usually likes demented heroes (I offered 5 stars to The Silver Adversary and I like Addison Cain, for f * ck’s profit) he leaves them within the mud.
