“Of course not Hazan.” “She’d been decided by the devil” no. She simply jumped to conclusions. For supposedly being so smart, Alizeh is pretty dumb

What’s with the lack of urgency on her part here? She knows the prince, knows he sent people to kill her, now he’s in her room and she’s just… talking? Asking him to leave to go back to her duties? Thinking about attending the ball? I don’t understand what’s the standing in the way of just fleeing as she’s always done?

OH MY GOD ???? I DID NOY SEE TBAT COMING OMFG

This book is sort of slow and I’m still a little confused about Alizeh’s character. I understand where’s she’s coming from but it’s still a little puzzling at times (i.e. she’s putting her survival first at all times but then agrees to attending a party/ball because she wants to look at pretty gowns and speak to people? Idkkkk)

the writing feels a little overbearing at times .. I didn’t connect with the prose in shatter me either - although this is better despite still being immensely flowery which takes me out of the story a bit tbh
