We've moved into a new realm, forcing them to compete in the Fae Games. It sounds like it will be this wild thing, and there are even some intense moments, but overall, they are far between. I wanted more action in this one. But we get to meet Xerxes and even get his POV! He's one of my favorites from this series.

Plot ⭐⭐⭐
Spice 🌶🌶
Banter 😂😂😂.5
Love-interests 🍆🦋🍆

⚠️ TW- violence, mentions of rape, abuse and torture, blood

✔️ Xerxes 
✔️ Plot - how interesting!! And the cliffhanger wow!!!
✔️ Sadie - she is hilarious, quite unhinged but charming - love how she didn’t forgive Ascher 😇
✔️ the banter!!!! Again, Sadie is hilarious, I laughed out loud a lot 
❌ the spacing? The flow of the story seems a bit weird to me, but not to the point where I want to stop reading this series. 
❔I'm still unsure about the guys, I prefer them over strangers, but the whole explosive-personalities thing gives me whiplash 
❔️ Aran and the half warriors? I'm intrigued by what that is all about.

》I was a half warrior; I was part fae.《

Author not followed !

4.5

I was once again blown away by the world-building of this. Despite being in a whole other world there is still continuity between the worlds and societies from the last book. All of the world-building from the last book just becomes more beautifully complex.

As I looked around, I realized I was the only female in the prison. Not the female empowerment movement I wanted to be a part of. (54)

My biggest wish is that there was some semblance of how these characters are going to get a happy ending.  I wish they had any kind of plan for happiness, through both books to this point they've only had a plan for survival.

I sent a small prayer to the moon goddess and asked her not to slut shame me. 
Sun god knew she was already being super rude with the life path she was putting me on.
Low key, she better be more supportive during my ho phase, because right now her attitude was not cute. (343)

My biggest complaint about this book is that while there was a remarkable amount of character development in this book (I love love love these characters now), there was very little development in the character's relationships with each other. Sadies best friendship status with Aran saw some major developments in this book that I liked a lot, but her relationships with the other alphas felt stagnant. The only relationship growth I loved was between Sadie and Xerxes, but Xerxes was barely in the first book so this book was the only opportunity for growth.

The cliffhanger was brutal. Perhaps even more brutal than from the last book. I'm crazy excited for the final book in the series.
