I found I did enjoy this one more than the first one, but it still wasn’t without flaws. 

The beginning was very intriguing and so was the end but the middle (much like end in the first book) felt kinda all over the place in pacing. It just kinda flew us in different directions but nothing stuck and I was just waiting for the end to help me and the character arch’s find their footing. 

That all being said, the story definitely hit deeper and with more maturity and I enjoyed the darker turns into the characters arch’s and choices. 

Overall, I would recommend these books if you love this world and I hope to be able to read further! ✨
