This book is the hardest to read out of what is out already just because of a particular scene. It is hard to read but the visuals are done tactfully and convey more of the emotion then expose the abuse. There is something so comforting to me in reading scenes done so sensitively so I can feel un-alone in experience I have personally had. I don't know that everyone would agree, but for me it was quite touching and I felt very seen when I first read this as a webtoon. The fallout isn't handled perfectly and 

I think a good amount of the middle of this series is handled a little less interestingly or well then I would have liked to see, but overall I enjoy it a lot. I don't think I will be rating every single installment of this series. So I am going to put it here that I like this enough to re-read and the beginning gives my mushy heart joy, the end gives me joy in many ways, and the middle is all a fun ride.

This book was a little more “filler” feeling than the first one. I still thoroughly enjoyed myself. The art is still spectacular.

The plot got stretched out in some places that frustrated me, but there was a major plot point from Vol 1 that was totally glossed over and I’m angry about it.

Good continuation of the series, but I felt like there wasn’t as much action compared to the first book and there was just filler stuff that wasn’t necessarily needed. But overall I liked it.
