Adrian's abilities come to light and
I am just glad the main characters are not a Mary Sue, there's definitely a lot of questionable decisions they made that made me see them in a different light, but as the story progresses it's hard to not feel for them.
Expect to do a lot of gasping because so much goes on in such a short amount of time that it has your head spinning trying to put it all together.
One thing that was a bit difficult to understand was when Isolde re-lived Yesenia's memories because it was not easy to distinguish if Isolde was in the present or past. I had to re-read a couple times to grasp what time period the author was talking about. Maybe if it was italicized or written as a chapter it would have been easier to decipher.
Overall, I can't wait for the third book, Adrian and Isolde went through so much already, I can't wait to continue reading about her journey to conquer despite everything!

The sequel to one of my top books of 2022. I won’t let my love for KOBAB blind me to how I feel about this book I promise.
Queen of Myth & Monsters is very character driven focusing on Isolde, worry not the plot is still solid even if it was character driven. There’s a lot happening on this book that picks up right after KOBAB, no time jump, and be warned that this will hurt.
I hurt for Violeta and Sorren, if you have read it you already know why, and I felt their loss and it feels unfair that both had to happen.
I was hoping for more chapters that focused on Adrian mostly because he seemed like an asshole for majority of this book due to circumstances and situations beyond control and I wished we were given his POV to know exactly how he feels or what he was thinking you know?
“You are my greatest gift Isolde. The day I found you was the day I needed nothing else” Bonus Scene Adrian - this 🥺
I love both Isolde & Adrian and this cliffhanger!!! I can’t believe I did not expect such ending 🤯
