Yes to everything you have to say wrt: EVERYONE SHOULD READ THESE NOVELS. (esp everything)
For the spoilers: + I LOVE HOW THIS IS BEING DEVELOPED. I would be *so upset* if they were not endgame - but I also am LOOOOOOOVING the slow burn of their relationship. How much time they are taking to get to know each other, the way even their friendship has ups and downs and isn't perfect, the way they are LEARNING to trust each other. UGH. It breaks EVERY RULE of YALit and as such is the most flawlessly constructed relationship I've read in a while.
+ NEVER OVER IT. Rebecka was my one true love.
+ I basically want a trilogy preseries about Adriana's life. Can we? THIS IS WHAT FANDOM SHOULD BE DOING WHILE WE WAIT FOR BOOK THREE.
+ THIS. A million times this.
+ If I had to choose, it would be Linnea. There's something very quaint about the way the authors are portraying a character that could so easily got lost in a ~trope or become a caricature. Linnea always feels the most accessible to me. (Second is Vanessa and Linnea is only #1 because Rebecka is gone. REBECKA. MY BABY.)
+ I think resurrection would be totally dependent on what happens in the 3rd book - and it looks like whatever is happening to Ida once she dies, resurrection either (a) will only be possible for her or (b) is not actually possible at all within this context. However, if we could get Rebecka back, I WOULD NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.
+ Word. Ida has had some tremendous growth (aside from the Gustaf thing which is so creepy) and I can't wait to see what is happening to her on the other side (or whatev)
--- I was poking around for fandom and there isn't really anything in English. But I found a couple of playlists on 8tracks and one (might) have spoiled me a bit for the last book. Only so much that I'm 90% more anxious to get it in my hands!!!
