This was messy and complicated and a whirlwind of emotion. The main character is wrapped so far into his lies that he’s deceiving everyone especially himself. I would describe this book as dangerously flirty and that made it enthralling although the inevitable doom that’s approaching.

“Those we love never truly leave us, Harry. There are things that death cannot touch.” 

“In every shining moment of happiness is that drop of poison: the knowledge that pain will come again. Be honest to those you love, show your pain. To suffer is as human as to breathe.”
