like most YA trilogies the middle book is often necessary, but also ... not a lot happens between the beginning and the end

Ahhhh echt dit boek, ik begin een beetje anti alina te worden door haar lust naar power maar gelukkig werd ze richting het einde iets beter en ik heb echt gehuild om het hele mal-alina gebeuren. En waarom eindigt elk boek met geen sprankje hoop?!! Ik ga meteen door met het derde boek lezen haha maar aan het einde van boek twee was een mini interview met de schrijfster en daar stond in dat niet iedereen het derde boek gaat overleven; als mal dood gaat overleven mijn boeken het ook niet😂

The sequel did not disappoint! I felt so much for Alina throughout this book. Even if she is the Sun Summoner her struggles are always incredibly relatable. I’m always rooting for her; time will tell if I root for her and Mal as couple though. Still highly recommend!

The first book was better in my opinion. The action came early in this book and too much happened at once. The book got better as the story proceeded but I do think that some part are boring and unnecessary for the storyline.
