Kai was one of my favorite book men, rivaling Rhysand and Jameson IYKYK, so the ending shook me, and now I don’t know what to do with myself.
I liked that there wasn’t spice, but it still had me giggling and kicking my feet! The banter and tension was excellent, and I know it’s going to be way more intense in the next book…which, by the way, I need, like…yesterday.
For ME, this book was the perfect balance of a lot of things. The romance and the plot were interconnected, and I didn’t feel like one overpowered the other. I’m a fantasy girlie who doesn’t enjoy reading about fighting or war for extended periods of time, and I liked how things were broken up in this book. It was enough to help the plot, but not too much to bore me.

As much as I enjoyed this book I didnt connect with the characters and the story as much as I would have liked. When sad things happened I wasn't crazy invested and it was a lil predictable. Its very hunger games but a lessened version the author a lot of the time feels the need to spell out the characters trauma to you and it becomes a recurring theme that I kind of got bored of hearing (I don't know if this is due to the nature of YA)
Will definitely be reading the next book when it comes out and im glad I read this book!!
