3.5

This one was also solid. Accidentally read the first one of this series and then the fourth, so I went back to read the second and third. I wasn't sure what was going to happen at the end of this book, which I appreciated. I think this was also the book where Nora got reconstructive surgery on her facial scars. And I thought that was kind of a bummer. Like why have a disabled lead gal and then fix her in the second (or third?) book? Now she's hot? It made Nora feel less relatable and human to me.
