Like right now, our confidence together was what pushed us to take our first steps into the new unknown we were facing. And when we couldn’t be strong, they were there to pick us up and hold us together. I was struck by the truth that real friends, as rare as they were, could be recognized in how they encouraged us-either via words or actions-to be the best versions… the strongest versions of ourselves. Together, we can figure out why you’re here, what the hell happened to this place, and what sort of smoke demon pet we just inherited.” Don’t dim your light for anyone, even those jerks out in the world. Embrace who you are and you will find your people. This story also has some really great points to take out of it for yourself. The characters couldn’t have been made to feel any more real then they are.

There is a rawness to it that can be hard to create when writing characters and worlds. The friendships and how they grow and how they all bond as a group…feeling secure in themselves to just be who they are. There was something about this book and how it tied everything together, that really connected me even more to the series. I honestly don’t know what to say to encourage you to finish this series…but you have to see it through.
