This is the second in The Young Elites series. I didn't enjoy it as much as the first one, but that makes sense for a trilogy. This book does the bulk of the heavy lifting for the rest of the plot in the series, so it is very plot heavy rather than character heavy. This book does introduce some new characters that are really interesting, and the relationship between the main character and her sister is explored more here. This book also really highlights the emotional and mental state of the main character after so much turmoil.
