strawberrytheauthor's review against another edition
I did not care about the characters anymore and honestly I didn’t care to see how the story got resolved. Also I have now learned there was a trilogy before this called the Winners Trilogy I think.

i enjoyed how this book ended although i wasn’t the biggest fan of nirrim’s character for this book i really enjoyed the development of (almost) each character we met from the midnight lie and how it all came together in the end

booksthatburn's review against another edition
I hadn't liked the love interest in the first book, so switching perspectives to that person and a very altered version of the previous protagonist resulted in a book where I dislike both of the point-of-view characters. That alteration fits the plot, so if you liked the first one this might work for you, it just didn't for me. I can say it starts to deal with the fallout of the protagonist's actions in the first book, so while I don't know how it ends up, I can confirm that it didn't resolve it quickly nor cheaply.
