WHAT I LIKE
👽 That there are two POV's because I read less about annoying John.
👽 Six. She's such a badass.
👽 Marina.
👽 Marina's sisterly relationship with Ella.

👽 That I got to see how differently the Cêpan react towards their Garde and their duty.

WHAT I DISLIKE
👽 That the two POV's didn't really intersect.
👽 John. He is such an idiotic character who makes so many stupid decisions. (show spoiler)
👽 The John, Six, Sarah love triangle.
👽 The John, Six, Sam love triangle.
