This has been my least fave in the series so far.
I don't mind an unlikable character but Josie and Haeden are annoying. Like the entire plot is just miscommunication and it wasn't carried by characters I had any sense of good will towards.
I like both of them in the previous book too, but they became warped exaggerated versions of the previous characters here.
And almost none of their choices made sense. I honestly would have DNF'd if it wasn't for background plot elements that clearly worked to move the timeline forward and set up future books.
Setting were details good at least.
