Lord of Shadows

This one kills you. It just kills you.
First of all, it's fantastic.
Ty's absolute honesty, and Kieran's as well, is very welcome against Emma and Julian's bullshit. Those two... I mean, they get their shit together eventually, but like GUYS. CMON.
The amount of traveling happening in this one book seriously makes me feel like I've read three books. I'm not even joking, THERE IS SO MUCH GOING ON AT ALL TIMES. AND I'M NOT EVEN MAD ABOUT IT! Because it's so. good.
Fuck, if I could just... Like, the last 100 pages is just me in a constant state of heart arrest, everything just keeps happening and I'm constantly worried, and the fighting and the plans and aaaaahhhhhh. It's a lot.
And Julian, with every book just gets scarier. Like, he has moments in LM where he makes you slightly uncomfortable because he doesn't seem to have a STOP button. In LoS, he's scary. He is frighteningly smart, like, boy just comes up with a new plan in like 0.5 seconds, nothing fucking surprises him, he's able to manipulate literally anyone, is the biggest (and best) liar in the entire world, and I just love him.
Lastly, we get so much more of Kieran in this book, and I just- yes. Yes, please. Keep it coming, I want it, I need it.
Oh, and also THE KITTY. By the Angel, it's so obvious.
