Like the first book in this series, it is LONG. I think that’s part of what took my enjoyment away. It was like some scenes felt repetitive (“I’m sorry I said this super hurtful thing”, cold shoulder turned to “I forgive you!”, repeat). The ending was satisfying, and I like the setting and atmosphere of this town, but I felt like the length could be minimized. I also noticed a shift in focus from Nico to Rafael, which was expected, yet I felt sad seeing less of Nico when he started the relationship to begin with.
