Today, we start from the prologue and we will be reading to the end of Chapter 10! Grab a beverage of your choice and snuggle down for a reading session and then join me in the comments to chat about it!

We learn that as daughter of the matrone, she is the heir of her people and once she has her third grace bone she can become a Leurress- a ferrier of the dead. But before she can, she must complete her rite of passage by killing her soulmate- her amour. A necessary price demanded by the Gods for the safety of this world. This is heartbreaking, what kind of cruel Gods are these?

Oh damn! With the full moon approaching Odiva asks Ailesse if she intends on bearing a child. She lies and says she will- but really she has no intention of providing another successor in their line. Oh wow, this just got more interesting!

Yes! That bone jewellery sounds so cool, I want some too ? I agree, loving the dichotomy between Sabine and Ailesse, their friendship is lovely!
Oh I feel the same way 100% Much prefer a slow burn romance myself ?
Thank you so much for joining and I hope you will enjoy the rest!

I started theorizing a bit about Odiva and why she is nice to Sabine, what she meant with sacrifice and so on. Sure, she is shady and there is definitely some hidden secret. She kind of reminds me of Mara in Wicked Like a Wildfire.

I like Ailesse she is such a kind and fierce woman and I do get how she constantly want to prove her mother she is worth it. I is tough not getting the approval of your parents when wanting it soo much

I am very intrigued by the story so far. I think my fais Sabine. I am very much like her; I would cry too if I was required to kill animals atball much less to gain power from them. I also like the relationship between her and Ailesse. They definitely have a strong friendship. Although, sometimes I get vibes from Sabine that her feelings for Ailesse are more than just friendship; sometimes they seem almost like romantic feelings.

So far this book is intriguing! I love a YA fantasy romance and we can already see we will get that. The magic system is interesting as well. It is different than what we usually see which is a nice change of pace. Sometimes each chapter being a different POV bothers me but I can see we will get a well rounded story.
