I found the start a little slower than the first book but once I got into it I couldn’t put it down. There was some frustrating miscommunication which is why I knocked half a star. Though I don’t think it is unbelievable within the characters and the world, though I think after a few times of the same recurring theme in the miscommunication between them, two of the characters would have realised they may as well tell all to the other and risk repetition rather than forsaking clarity and understanding.
I cannot wait for the third book to be released and I’m praying for a happy ending for Amara and those she loves (avoiding spoilers), though I do fear that may be wishful thinking thanks to the unavoidable fact we’re dangerously approaching 79AD and Vesuvius’ eruption :(
