Nona the Ninth

Her city is under siege. The zombies are coming back. And all Nona wants is a birthday party. In many ways, Nona is like other people. She lives with her family, has a job at her local school, and loves walks on the beach and meeting new dogs. But Nona's not like other people. Six months ago she woke up in a stranger's body, and she's afraid she might have to give it back. The whole city is falling to pieces. A monstrous blue sphere hangs on the horizon, ready to tear the planet apart. Blood of Eden forces have surrounded the last Cohort facility and wait for the Emperor Undying to come calling. Their leaders want Nona to be the weapon that will save them from the Nine Houses. Nona would prefer to live an ordinary life with the people she loves, with Pyrrha and Camilla and Palamedes, but she also knows that nothing lasts forever. And each night, Nona dreams of a woman with a skull-painted face...
💠Review
I loved, loved, LOVED Nona! The sweet little cinnamon roll. Her and her little family just felt so comfortable and sweet.
I didn't care for the kids.
I loved Ianthe and her sister, Coronabeth. They're so toxic. And GIDEON, oh my god, you bitch. 💕
The worldbuilding shared in this was awesome and I can't believe I missed the obvious. God is such an asshole, I like him lmfao.
As usual, some parts were hard to follow.
The ending was...mm. I dunno? I dunno.
The last book is planned to release 2029 and that's fucking devastating.
