if you didn’t want that teenager to come to bodily harm then why did you take him with you toward danger

ten points for a plot twist that actually bangs. it would bang harder if i hadn’t immediately guessed it due to heavy-handed foreshadowing thirty pages ago, but it does bang

i swear i could shave 10% off this book just by taking out the redundant filler prose

i am so much more invested in the gayass toxicity happening between [octavian] and [agrippa] than i am in calla and anton

oh my god calla doesn’t jump because royals weren’t supposed to i KNOW

the prose in this book isn’t offensively bad but it’s like nothingburger

best part of this book is bleach blonde octavius caesar

remember how i said i was gonna speedrun this and then i didn’t. im serious this time

i got frustrated with how this book kept introducing new characters and POVs of people i do not care about and then i realized that makes it a really good antony and cleopatra adaptation and then i got mad. and then i forgot i was reading it,

please tell me augustus and agrippa have a weird gay thing. and please tell me it's toxic
