Yeah um that was a thoroughly enjoyable book. I saw nearly everything coming a mile away but it didn't matter because the journey there was stunning.
JLA is truly at her best with the sweeping grand climatic scenes, and there is plenty of that on display here.
All the issues I had with this book (and series) come down to the editing. Some of it was grammar, some of it was world building issues. Publishing houses really need to start asking authors 'what level of technological development is this world at?', 'where did the characters get this item?', and 'is current slang applicable to this world?'

I love Cas. I love Kieran. I love Reaver. There are other characters I love but these are probably my favorites. They’re witty and sarcastic and also loveable. I feel like Poppy really grew throughout this book especially.
I do feel like Armentrout does fall into this cycle of repetition that kind of drags on but I really like the actual storyline so I look past the repetitive jokes that have lost their effect and the repetitive info for the general story that I’m really enjoying.

Ive read most of JLAs works and I think what I’ve ultimately realized is they are better for bingeing once the series is complete than reading as they release, so going forward, I think that is how I will read her books.
