I wish I'd looked harder at the cover. Can you look and tell me whether the boy on the front has a pierced ear? Can you tell? Also is he wearing a little pin of a snake, or not?

Amaranth and Efrain really DESERVE each other. Phoebus, well, maybe HE could end up with Agrona if he doesn't die? Because it's not that he shouldn't be happy at the end (he should!) but well he's not as interesting as Efrain.
