Siege and Storm

“We do the best we can,” I offered lamely.David looked at me then, the regret plain on his face. No matter what I said, we both knew the hard truth. We do our best. We try. And usually, it makes no difference at all.

I rarely read two books from the same series one right after the other (I think it happened only with Harry Potter and the Illuminae Files lol), but I SWEAR I'LL JUMP ON RUIN AND RISING IN A FEW DAYS BECAUSE I'M ADDICTED TO THIS SERIES, OK BYE.
