I love, love, love this series! Chess is a mess, but she's so human, and always trying to do the best she can whith what she has to do it with. Terrible is broken, but they just might be able to heal each other; at least a little bit.

This was so fast paced I'm almost out of breath having read it! And there were so many different things going on it was hard to wrap my brain around it. Chess had stuff going on in all directions, and she had no idea who to trust or who not to trust. In the end, she really had to count on herself, Terrible and Lex; and wasn't seeing them all work together a total blast?

There are loads of quotes in my updates, and I could add much more. I think those kind of quotes is part of why I love this series so much - the characters seem so real because they are human, have flaws and know that they have flaws. I wish Chess would try to do something about her drug addiction, though, but then again, without it she wouldn't be the Chess I love. And it's the one big secret she's keeping from the church as well.

Off to read Sacrificial Magic now! So glad it just was released :)
