3.5

The emotional damage the last two chapters of this book made me bump my star rating down to a 3.5. I’m just kidding but really though. The ending wrecked me. I’m not ok and I even accidentally spoiled it for myself and knew what was going to happen. 

I enjoyed this addition into the Amari universe but just wished that the pacing wasn’t so fast. I told multiple people while reading this that Amari and her friends needed a break since it goes from one problem and mission to the next. And it got to be a lot at times. 

I’m also not sure with that ending how there will be two more books because the ending seems pretty final to me.
