I think I preferred the camp life compared to the previous setting of the palace and the travelling. It gives you a chance to settle in a bit more and get to know the characters that I have no doubt will keep coming up in the series.
I was also surprised that we got chapters from Queen Malina POV. I'm not sure how I feel about her. I am kind of invested to see what she can do but I also feel like her dislike for Auren is very superficial, but I'm here to see if there is character growth for her throughout the series or if she just becomes a one dimensional villain for the plot.

➳ Once again, Raven Kennedy‘s writing was immaculate and I couldn‘t put this book down whatsoever! The whole series is just so addicting that I picked up the third book right after finishing this lol
➳ Commander Rip got me from the first page, their conversations and the way he‘s trying to show her her real worth? Omg. Can‘t get over them and I‘m so excited to see their journey!!
➳ The side characters are just making this whole series so perfect, every single one is unique and it never get‘s boring to read about people other than the main characters. I think Raven Kennedy did an awesome job at making them likable and lovable
➳ Once again I loooved the wintery traveling setting
➳ Gotta say that the plot twists can be expected and seen from a mile away, but I gaped nonetheless when they happened
➳ I loved the development of Auren, thinking about everything that had happened, who has actually done her wrong and her starting to see her real worth and develop self love <3
➳ Also I‘m still trying to figure out whether I like Malina or not, nonetheless her POV‘s are pretty entertaining and I‘m excited to see where her journey‘s going to go
➳ Oh and also? I HATE MIDAS!!!

There was enough interesting things and surprises to keep me interested but I’m going to need Auren to step it up for me to love this series because at this time it’s a meh. I do like however how it shows someone breaking down and dismantling their beliefs and how difficult that can be.
