SPOILER!!:
So first, the small thing that annoyed me. The overuse of the work Skies. I just...it annoyed me that it was used so much by so many of the characters. Is it used somewhere else in the world a lot and I'm just being blissfully stupid to it all of this time or is it just in the book? I don't know but I feel like it was used a lot.

Aaaaanyway, why do I always find myself rooting for the romance that just isn't destined to be? I mean, Helene and Elias? NOPE. Maybe Helene and Harper now? I don't know.

Also, I just looooved the little slave kid's in Kauf (Tas and Bee) and then when Elias gives him one of the serric blades at the end? Super cute.
The good news is, NONE of those spoilers are regarding Book 3! I just went back and checked what Ern and I were talking about, and it's all RE: Book 2, so feel free to join in our discussion.

Speaking of, I'm not sure if Ern and Nat have read Book 3 yet! BUT I HAVE! So I am eager to discuss whenever you finish reading your copy that comes tomorrow.

SPOILER!!: my spoiler reply to YOUR spoiler
LOL that's a fair annoyance! I think Skies! is their version of Merlin's Beard! LOL. I feel like this is something centaurs would say.

Same, same to both those. I'm still holding out hope for at least one of those pairings though... you'll have to read the next book to see what I mean (maybe).
