i didn’t like this one as much as the first purely because i don’t like the love triangle. i understand the symbolism behind it, but i think it sometimes comes at the expense of the character development. because the love triangle took up so much of the first half, it really took me out. that being said the second half definitely redeemed it for me.

It's rare for a second book of a trilogy to keep up the momentum of the first but this book did exactly that. We get to know the characters more in depth and find out more about the resistance in the districts
