Ok, I love the writing and the characters but I am sitting here with my mouth hanging open. I am so confused as to what just happened. The story ends with a cliffhanger and don't get fooled I will on it to read but the story like Madison is a bit broken to me. So many secrets and mysteries that AMO will be revealing in the next book. I just have one word ... covfefe??? ;-)

Girl!!!! Seriously I am no prude but there are things in this book that turn my stomach. I can dig hot sex. I can dig dirty and rough stuff. But this is gross. He can’t NOT brutally take her every time? Like she says how her whole body hurts, yet she can get up in the next sentence and be fine like she is not in any pain. Ugh that is just stupid and unrealistic!

Aside from that shit, this was so remaking good! So many secrets were uncovered, but that also left so many more questions yet to be answered... Nate is still my favorite! He needs his own book!

Literally read this in a few hours today. Sweet baby jeebus, this book, like the first was amazing. I don't know why I was such a chicken shit to read these books, but I am totally over it. The book continues where the first left off, following Madison as she dodges this new life she has found herself in. As like the first one, I just don't even know how to form the damn words about this book.
I am throwed off. I loved this book so much, there wasn't anything I didn't like about this book. The flow was perfection, there was never a minute I was like...this bitch is cray, cause she isnt...she is a master storyteller, albeit a little twisted, but it's all good in my hood, cause I could read this shit all day. Told in mostly Madison's pov, there are snippets from others. You have to read it to see who.

challenging dark sad tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Strap up folks, cause we are back on the Amo crazy train, and I’m ready to crash right back into the delicious and devious world of those Elite’s. We’ve still got our broken heroine, grappling to find her footing in this Elite world and grasp the concept of the Silver Swan, we still have the dark and at times brutal attraction between Madison and Bishop, and we still have a bazillions secrets and twists- much of the book exposition here is unraveling all the mysteries still dangling in the ether post book 1. All we can ever rely on is that nothing is as it seems, and there are just as many lies and half-truths and secrets as there are honest revelations.

The pace isn’t quite as intense in this one, in part because Madison at times is just stubborn and because we’ve built up such a huge pile of questions that answering them feels a bit slower than I’d like- but we have lots of suspense and tension that sucks you in.

If you expect to have all the answers, or even have a clean/neat conclusion then you don’t know Amo- her worlds are not neat, they are not clean they are not even conclusive at times. That’s real- the real world is a bunch of grey. What we get is what Amo does so well- a dark and twisted world with a plot that almost seems circular it twists so much, flawed and damaged characters who resort to emotional tyranny and/or repression as they try to understand themselves and each other, and a dark, unsettling, and brutal attraction between our anti-hero and heroine. And, per usual, we’re left with more questions than answers- so on to book 3!

Also whoever does Amo’s covers needs a prize- cause they are always FIRE.
