disappointing.

I’m sorry, but this doesn’t even feel like it belongs with the first book. The romance was pretty much nonexistent and the plot was honestly so boring.  The only reason I got through this is because I listen to the audiobook at the same time. It did not have the same vibe as the first book at all. The plot twist was also blatantly obvious. Conversations felt repetitive and unemotional. I struggled with this one.

I loved how Blythe got her own POVs and how they were few and far between but complimented the story perfectly.

All in all, I had fun. I felt at times like this suffered from Second Book Syndrome though. It definitely tried to achieve too much in a short space of time: it took maybe half the book to clear up the last one whilst slowly setting up the plot for this one, and it all got resolved fairly quickly in the second half. The timeline was a bit off at times too. But I enjoyed it and had a good time diving back into this world.

I feel like this was a solid follow-up but could have been condensed into a novella to bridge between the first and third book. A little unnecessarily complicated which I found frustrating and to detract from the story itself.

I can't explain how much I love this book serious and I really hope more are written. This was such an amazingly immersive book that had me unable to put the book down. I can't recommend it enough the love story and passion in addition to the mysteries and plot twists were incredible
