Ally by Anna Banks
3.0
3.5 stars.
Even though I extremely love the characters in this duology, I feel like a lot of things within this story-line should've been developed more since there's a lot of awesome elements presents, which isn't being talked about much so that feels kind of superficial?
It felt like a bit too much of everything put within this one final book that might've been better off being written over the expanse of at least two books I think. There's so much more I've wanted to explore; the different kingdoms and their powers/magic and a lot of in-between-moments that I kind of missed I guess.
Overall, this second book, unfortunately, didn't completely live up to its expectations but that doesn't mean it wasn't an enjoyable read, because I still immensely enjoyed it. I'd still recommend this duology because the writing is so addictive, the characters are really lovable and I connected with them instantly back in book 1 and now again in this book and I really enjoyed the presence of these magic and Egyptian elements throughout the story-line.
