i love me a fantasy that has me mentally connecting characters/plot points with red string, especially when it is related to time loops, obsessed. i also appreciate the author just providing a summary of book 1 at the start and moving straight into book 2 plot. i also love how you develop expectations, have them subverted, make NEW expectations and bam, same thing happens again :')

Amazingly complex book - it tied together a lot of the mysteries of the first book into a fascinating web. As with the first book, it was a bit slow to start but then got going. It made me want to keep reading it. I love a book that switches between multiple point of views. Can’t wait to read the next book!
