“Is it a kindness to loose prey back into the world, simply to be shot again?” —Victor Vale, page 285

i forgot how fucking tense this book made me feel. literally the stakes were so fucking high and i flew through the book trying to get to the end that i’ve already known. it still caught me so off-guard how rich the world is, how deep these characters get under your skin—victor and eli are something else, guys.
