Oh my god?!?
I enjoyed reading the first book more but holy shit I still loved this one so much.  
I mostly was less convinced by all the philosophising this time. That was the part that really got me into the first book. But now I got into the character dynamics and the chaos of it all. I also actually like some of the characters now and considering they're all designed to be assholes that's an accomplishment. And I was rewarded in my favourite shipping!! I didn't dare to hope for it because so many characters are set up to potentially have some romantic and/or sexual relationship. 
Honestly, their relationship dynamics were all over the place and I was here for it.
