This book was an emotional roller coaster. My heart broke for Jude and Caspien over and over. It has been many years since I read Great Expectations so I couldn’t quite remember where the plot line was going to lead me, but my heart was in my throat with each encounter. The writing was stunning, the scenes laid out brilliantly, the characters rich and complex. I will admit act 1 was a bit tedious to get through. I couldn’t understand Jude’s love for Cas. It was more teenage infatuation, but act 2 was incredible and had me aching for more time in their story because the page count was dwindling and things still weren’t resolved. I wish Act 3 were longer so we could live more in their beautiful new world. Loved this book.
