Gut punch, not feel good but enthralling enough to keep going.

Wow, I don't feel good after having read this book. It really got me going, with the introduction a bit slow but really set in the motivations for the protagonist. I was ecstatic to read about a character that wants to save her country from colonisation.
Throughout the book, I was hoping to be rewarded with a satisfying conclusion. Instead, I got my hopes broken and am a bit surprised with the protagonist's physical state. I'm not sure how she will fare in the next books...
... Which I'm definitly reading. But maybe not just yet. I need to recuperate after this ending...
