"I remembered my earlier thought about how it wasn't wrong to want, how it was necesscary. But of course nothing is as simple as that. Wanting something doesen't always mean it is owed to you."
My thoughts and feelings on the bookThoughts:The ending was a bit too rushed but it's perfect when you ignore that. The characters were beautifully written and I loved both Sid and Nirrim. I searched for a YA Fantasy book that is queer and actually good and I found it. Would really recommend. Feelings : <spoiler> Noooo the ending, I liked her. :( I'm gonna read the second book just because I want it to have a happy ending or at least a neutral ending but not this T_T </spoiler>
pretty glod but also pretty predictable
Quite enjoyable start to the series that definitely captured my interest for the next installment(s?)! I feel like "Midnight Lie" really focused on the dynamic between the main characters and also on illustrating what life is like in Ethin, the city the story is set in. While the beautiful writing made these two components lively and intriguing, the plot felt rather slow to me. I really do have high hopes for "Hollow Heart": how will Nirrim's and Sid's stories continue, what more we will learn about the city, why Half-Kith, Middlings and High Kith can or have to live as they do and about the truth behind the magic.
The story was rather slow, but I loved the romance! But the ending really killed me.... How am I supposed to wait for the next book?
