I could not get past the writing with this book. Everything felt all over the place with the plot and I did not really connect with any of the characters. It also put me in a reading slump and I tried to pick it up multiple times but I think I’ll maybe try this one later. Big maybe though. I had really high expectations due to the hype which also probably contributed to me struggling with this one.

This book was much more captivating than the first one. I really enjoyed it, and I read the entire thing in one sitting. It was very interesting and a lot frustrating when it came to the romance side of things, and I really hope that figures itself out soon because I’m dying over here. It was thrilling and adventurous and at times very much gave me second-hand embarrassment, but I thoroughly enjoyed this and couldn’t put it down. It’s one am rn as I’m writing this, but I’ll be glad to start the next novel as soon as I wake up tomorrow.
