I need to reread this with my reread of [b:The Winner's Curse|16069030|The Winner's Curse (The Winner's Trilogy, #1)|Marie Rutkoski|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1377023523s/16069030.jpg|21861552] as I am afraid some of the details were lost on me..it's been several months now. I adore Arin so getting these exchanges with his mother were the highlight.
