I really love how this book deals with it because rather than having her suddenly change personalities and go by a new name(*cough*aelinashryver*cough*), Jules is still… Jules.

This book handles the whole “suddenly revealed that mc is an old magical being or princess or something and she didn’t know it” really well. All at once at has the feel of an old magical fairytale, a heart pounding ya fantasy, and it just feels beautiful and magical and shattered. Am I being a little dramatic, maybe? I’M NOT EXAGGERATING YALL. If Everless tore my heart out, this book crushed it, stomped on it, and rolled it in broken glass, then shoved it back into my chest. This book is the perfect follow up to Everless. But I’m going to try, so we’ll see how this goes. For it is only by piecing together the mysteries of her lives that Jules will be able to save the person who has captured her own heart in this one. Jules must delve into the stories that she now recognizes are accounts of her own past. And Caro is intent on destroying Jules, who stole her heart twelve lifetimes ago. The whole kingdom believes that Jules is responsible for the murders, and a hefty bounty has been placed on her head. But she has just learned the truth: not only are the stories true, but she herself is the Alchemist, and Caro-a woman who single-handedly murdered the Queen and Jules’s first love, Roan, in cold blood-is the Sorceress. Jules Ember was raised hearing legends of the ancient magic of the wicked Alchemist and the good Sorceress. The highly anticipated sequel to New York Times bestseller, Everless!
