Review:
Oh man. Touraine and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day 😩
Loyalty, gay panic, sapphic longing, belonging, betrayal 💔 CL Clark, you have hurt my heart! I didn’t even have time to get my hopes up before everything came crashing down 😭 This story is action packed with twists everywhere! I cannot wait to read The Faithless 📖
It is so easy to connect with Touraine and Luca, they are so real and filled with the imperfections of life. I loved with them, I hurt with them, I cried and they kept it together 👀 They complement each other so well - One learning themself through their home land, the other learning themself through helping those of that land. I think fans of Gideon and Harrow from the Locked Tomb would appreciate the relationship between these two!
