The casual intimacy between MCs and SCs 👌 the peaks into Pruit and Aranen’s lives 🤌 I’d say those chapters were a nice reprieve from the heartache but they’re just as gutting 🥲 C.L. Clark did a wonderful job giving them each such unique personalities and voices. I hope we get more of their perspectives in The Soverign. And Rasha Zamamiri 😍 what a fantastic range to distinguish between various characters. The different twinges she added were such a lovely feature to further immerse you in the universe
