And the final line... *chef's kiss* (screaming & crying at that ending)
And so Tamlin unwittingly led the High Lady of the Night Court into the heart of his territory.

I was significantly less frustrated with the characters and overall plot, though I still have my qualms.
I really love all the new characters we’re introduced to from the Night Court; they all have their own motivations that feel realistic, but in our reality and a fantasy setting. They feel properly fleshed out for the most part. The relationships between each of them also feel plausible, along with how they came to be.
The descriptions of the settings were pretty good and felt pretty immersive, especially since similar are often used in visual medias already so I could easily refer to something I’ve already seen to visualize the surroundings.
It’s not the best written thing I’ve read, but certainly a lot better than the first book, so that’s why I’ve rated it higher but not much higher than the first book.
