The characters and their imaginative powers continue to be intriguing. The hidden identities and secret plans and FEELINGS combined to create some truly palpable tension.
This was a great superhero read, with vivid fights and incredible powers and fascinating tools.
And, once again, I love the clash of ideologies, where the validity and flaws of all sides are examined.
A really great, layered read.

There were some things about the book that I hope will be better explained in the third book,
Spoiler
in particular why Monarch was suspicious of Nova in the first place. Was it just falling asleep in the hospital from the first book. It just seems very weak. Monarch is probably one of the few character that I actually don't like in this series so far.With the ending of this book I cannot wait to see what happens and how everything will unfold. I don't really have an idea of where this could go, but do have some hopes.

AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!!
It’s so frustrating to read nova and Adrain’s story sometimes because they believe in the same basic ideas but are on different sides 🥲
I really enjoyed reading how Nova is having second thoughts about her who,e identity. It’ll be interesting to see how she turns out in the end.
Also if Max dies, I will be heartbroken. Also also, I’m so glass Frostbite’s team no longer has their powers. They were horrible.

in the first book we see how Nova infiltrates the Renegades which is entertaining, but in this second book, we have to see how she balances both of her lives, which is far more entertaining.Graphic: Death of parent, Gun violence, Death, Violence, and Blood
