But it's also a book whose message (said repeatedly, almost ad nauseum) is one of love conquering all.
And OMG it was so long. But honestly, with the amount of plot points we had to get through, it was warranted. The pace was pretty normal, not too slow.

The mystery plot was really engaging and the world was interesting. I was confused by the worldbuilding and think a map of the world (instead of just the city) and a glossary of terminology would have been helpful.
I found the rudeness and hostility between Bryce and Hunt at the beginning to be immature and very annoying. Luckily the characters were developed, and I really liked them and their relationship by the end of the book. I thought it was great that they develop a friendship first and then eventually a romantic relationship. The scene where she takes care of him when he's feeling messed up after getting back from one of Micah's assignments was so sweet.
The last 200 pages or so were awesome. Just a wild ride, crazy action-packed and full of emotion.

If this didn’t connect back to ACOTAR then I would have DNF’d half way through out of boredom and frustration, but, alas.
