“Being sick meant, at any moment, the people I cared about could decide I wasn't worth the trouble I put them through”

This book means more to me than I can put into words. Is it perfect? No - Is it perfect for me? Absolutely yes.

The whole concept of the musketeers is new to me, I've never read much on it so I was going in blind. Saying this, I absolutely loved it. The book is filled with mystery, suspense and plot twists that had me on the edge of my seat. There's even some minor subplots of romance that were so much fun to read.

The representation in this book is amazing. It's not often you see chronically ill characters in books, and definitely not as the main character. You can tell that the character's experience with POTS comes from the own author's experiences because it feels so real. Tania's dizziness and symptoms are not just a convenient plot point but affect her everyday experiences. God they even managed to fit compression clothes into the story, which is harder than it seems as it was set in 17th France

Not only did it show the physical symptoms of chronic illness so well, but also the psychological issues. How even on the “good” days you're tormented with the fact that it could go bad at any moment. It even showed Tania dealing with grief in a way I think a lot of people can relate in one way or another.

This book is so important and will be one I treasure for a long time. Thank you to the author for writing this, it will make a lot of readers feel seen and heard in ways most people cannot even begin to imagine

“Un pour tous et tous pour un!”
