Shield of Sparrows Immediate Thoughts & Reactions | Fangirl Breakdown

In this spoiler-filled reaction episode, Hannah and Karly hit record just two minutes after Hannah finished reading Shield of Sparrows. The emotions? Raw. The spiraling? Immediate. The chaos? Very. Real. Karly finished the book first and, like the responsible bookish bestie she is, threw together a quick outline to help guide the conversation. But let's be honest, this episode was recorded between 1am and 3am, so no matter how structured it tries to be... it's still mostly unhinged. This is the kind of post-read breakdown where your heart is still racing, your voice is too loud, and you keep yelling "wait, can we go back to that one scene for a second?" If you've just finished Shield of Sparrows and need to scream with someone... this is your episode & these are your book besties! *Please note that this episode includes spoilers for the entirety of Shield of Sparrows by Devney Perry* In this episode: • Real-time post-book emotional chaos • Favorite moments and unfiltered reactions • Swooning and spiraling over key characters (you know the ones) • Early thoughts and theories for what's next • Karly trying to be composed while Hannah just got wrecked Want to scream with us about it?
