Not as good as the first book but better than expected. I thought reading from Donatella’s perspective wouldn’t be enjoyable but I grew to like her more than I thought I would. My biggest issue with this is actually the gaping plot holes it creates in the first, which was already teetering on the edge of being nonsensical. If you can pretend that the continuity issues don’t exist this might be a 4 or 5 star read for you, but, alas, you would be a bigger person than me.

I didn’t like the sequel to Caraval as much as I enjoyed the first novel. The plot seemed somewhat disjointed, kind of like there were too many things going on and there wasn’t enough explanation of any of them. I love the characters still and the bad boy is even easy to love, which isn’t always easy to do. I am looking forward to getting some closure with the last novel of this series.

A great sequel to the first book! I loved the change in perspective and the addition of the Fates to the storyline.

i really disliked the fact that this book’s setting wasn’t the same as the previous one, i really wish it had been more “magical” like i expected it would. the new element of the Fates and the new characters were great tho, it would’ve been better if the book focused more on that rather than the horrible romance between Tella and Dante, i hope he fucking dies or something.
