This book was a great introduction to the Lunar civilization on the moon and a phenomenal insight to Queen Levana's life, however I don't think we needed a 220 page story to justify that Levana is a major bitch. The rest of the series has done that just fine.
alright y'all, i'm going on a little rant sorry
tw??? SA
i couldn't finish this book. i do not care about a villain who is a rapist.
it was SO UNCOMFORTABLE to read about SA in a kids/teen book, and it lasted for 10 pages????? hell no.
maybe it got “resolved” later in the book, but i don't really care.
i'm just going to say i read the entire book and move on.
This probably didn't need to be a standalone book. It could have easily been added to others in the series.
