„He shakes his head. “No, Auren. You’re the one that needs to burn. You need to spark to life and fight. Stop letting him dull you, stop letting the whole fucking world trample you,” he shouts, making me flinch from the vehement demand. “If you tried, you could shine brighter than the fucking sun. Instead, you’ve chosen to sit back and wither.”“ 
-S.R. 

➳ 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!!!

This is my reread of the series in preparation for the release of Goldfinch later this year. I still very much enjoy the growing relationship between Auren and Rip and I love that she finally starts to find her way to herself. Already knowing the major plot points it was fun to remeet Lu, Judd and Osrik and I am still a great fan of the Wrath. Malina is still obnoxious and entitled and I still think she deserved all that happened to her for being such a horrible monarch. However, I still think her plotlines are super important for the overall story and she is definitely not my least favourite monarch (looking at you Midas).

It’s much better than the first book. Still not the best. Poor copy of ACOTAR series to be honest
