It’s a carbon copy of the ritual (book 1) but with less loveable characters and nothing else different happens

I had no issue with the darkness level. It started out really well, unfortunately by 50% I just felt it was way too long and repetitive. I loved The Ritual, but this one fell flat for me.

I enjoyed the first book. I read this book hoping to fall more in love with the series. However, I felt frustrated by how in the dark the reader was the whole time. For the book being split POV I didn't feel like I understood the MMC or his motivation. I also didnt feel any real chemistry between the characters. I was constantly questioning their desire to be together.
