That being said, I feel like some plot points were fairly predictable and easily guessed
I don’t buy into the whole for the greater good thing, especially with Violeta’s death. Killian saying goodbye to her had me tearing up. And Isolde’s conversation with her mother about has me sobbing

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 🤯

Queen of Myth & Monsters is a unique idea. Isolde’s development of her abilities is a smooth transition, however I wish her relationship with Adrian would move beyond miserable communication. He’s an asshole, she’s a bitch. We get it.
