I refuse to give SJM 5 stars anymore off of the whole Breonna Taylor post, but I will say this book got as close as I think any of her books will get to 5 stars for me again! 

This book does an excellent job of building up you curiosity and adrenaline in my opinion. You come to feel for the characters so much that when something happens to them it feels as if your there with them! 

I think out of the first two books this one could really be considered a mystery/thriller type of book! There are alot of things your trying to solve and figure out from the first book that get resolved here. But even thought they are resolved they open up their own can of worms. 

Truly think this series is far better than ACOTAR which is subjective but I personally feel it is a fact. I don’t know for sure yet (cause I have stayed away from spoilers) but I feel like this series and ACOTAR are set in the same world.
