JFR: The Lies We Conjure by Sarah Henning

I loved this book because it wasn’t so complicated for my brain to comprehend the fantasy/magical world in it. And it did bring me out of my rut.

But I have some questions and rants about the book 😆. Feel free to join and also share your thoughts on it.

Questions: 1) Where is Athena Blackgate? Is she dead or alive? 2) What happened to Hegemony kids’ mothers? Ursula’s kids are surrogated but are her grandchildren surrogated as well? 3) Luna says the dead driver is a non-witch or something? So how did they miss Ruby and Wren?

Rants: I enjoyed the writing but it did get a little annoying when Auden and Ruby’s POV was reflecting a same tone here and there. I felt that it could have been a little more distinct from the other.

And I felt like Ursula’s murder and the whole whodunnit thing could have been explained better with emphasis like how they do it in a usual whodunnit book.
