Okay okay! This book was absolutely everything. I barely survived without a book hangover (which I still could develop). I loved this book from start to finish. Every single thing that happened at pretty much any point had me wanting to turn pages. The almost 600 pages never felt like a drag. This was super easy to read and get lost in. We got to further explore pretty much everything I was curious about from the first book. I loved all the new characters and the semi answers we got satisfied me just enough that I want to immediately continue. 

This gives me the same vibes as…another series I read one time (⚡️) which although it literally compares them on the cover I actually didn’t expect. I’m so glad I got the push to read this series. My heart is so full, I wish I had more right now but I will have to wait. I think I might do something crazy and give it 5 Stars.
