Most of the time while reading this I wasn’t sure what was happening, and after finishing I’m still not entirely certain. BUT WHAT AN EXPERIENCE. I just want to go back and reread the entire series, to annotate in a different colour all the threads and hints the author dropped that I missed on my first journey through this world. (Then I’ll probably want to read it again. ...more

This series/world has to be my favourite of all time.
I wasn’t sure how anything could top Gideon (giggity) because I LOVED Gideon, and we all know how that book ended. But she was there in every chapter, even through her absence. I am not a fan of second person pov, BUT THIS IS THE EXCEPTION!
Tamsyn has an incredible way with words and worldbuilding, but I would have to say the best thing that she does is VOICE. Harrow oozed through the pages. So different from Gideon, that when chapter 44 hit (iykyk) it was such a marvellous shock.
I’m starting Nona right away and immediately making Locked Tomb my entire personality.

What an incredibly eye-opening story of her life. Loved how it felt so intimate, like she was sitting closely and telling it to me alone.
No children should have to go through what she did. No person. But you know she wasn’t the only one nor the last. Wealth inequality is a tragedy that I hope we manage to solve....more

Akwaeke has such an incredible way with words. They describe emotion and experiences with absolute perfection. I feel like I was reading a masterpiece, but at the same time it was like sinking into the world rather than experiencing art from afar. It wasn’t needlessly dense - just perfect.
As for the story itself - an amazing story about grief and love. I cried, I cheered, I got all warm and fuzzy. I’m happy Feyi has Joy and even Milan in her life. I’m glad she was finally able to experience warmth and love. ❤️❤️❤️...more
