In the grand scheme of things, the novella gives you a lot of good background to Levana. Her character is much more complex and richer than she was ever was in the main series, which was provided by her own narrative taking place before the events of the main series. However, it doesn't necessarily further the plot in any way that I deem necessary before reading Winter. ( )

I loved the backstory of Queen Levana. It was hopeful, dark, and informative. ( )

I cannot bear this book. I hate Levanna too much. It is unbearable to read. I quit. ( )

I still don't like her but i am so excited for winter! ( )
