Reread in 2021 after doing The Diviners for JBC. This series is genuinely just so amazing. I can understand why people don't love this book as it isn't in Manhattan the whole time, but I love the look at the rest of the country, especially knowing what was to come shortly after this book.

And really, that's what makes this series so bitter sweet. Those who survive to the end are about to go through The Great Depression, a second World War...they're not going to find peace easily. And after what goes on in this series, that just breaks my heart so much. I need my Diviners to be okay and live long lives.

I can't stop crying what a good ending RTF

I am so worried Memphis is going to die. There's something in how he's being written that has me worried he won't make it to the end. I won't spoil anything, but JUST A CONCERN.
January LaVoy is a god just in case anyone is wondering.
I trust Sarah Beth less and less and less every time Isaiah talks to her."
