Why is there so little Knox in this book and why is he pretty much insufferable except for the last chapter or so with him???? He was so good in ZA. Ryders insane still. Love Leon and Dante after this book. I need to know what Gabriel did to Gareth, and I need to know what happened so badly between Cindy Lou and Gareth. Also I know Nightshade is sus with everything but Titan feels TOO nice idk I don’t trust him.

there was more development and insight concerning the other characters which i always love but gareth's chapters almost got too interesting. considering it's balancing a romantasy with a murder mystery side plot i was just getting super impatient with the murder mystery part so i couldn't enjoy the romance as much as i did in the first book. the romantic drama was still fun but it got a little too OTT at moments, even for me, so i ended up skimming some of those scenes. i liked the 'new' antagonist (in that i found that whole thing super interesting) but it's another part of the story that stole my attention for most of the book and i kept waiting for more to happen there. i'm assuming it will get more focus in the next book but this kind of anticipation in a murder mystery is killing me i need answers!! it feels like so much happens but also nothing at all and it's still somehow addictive to read.
