i love rereading htn with the knowledge from ntn. being able to properly appreciate pyrrha dve. wake talking about pyrrha and pyrrha talking about wake, with the context of pyrrha’s landmine people quote. understanding blood of eden and alecto and what jod is trying to do. the gideonisms in the narration, complaining about harrow fucking up the sword.

that said, i’ve read this book twice and i still don’t know how it ends
