The friends who warned me this book was slower than the first were not wrong. But when you’re stuck on an airplane with only one book, you read on. There wasn’t a ton of action for the second book of a trilogy, but I could feel the build-up to a (hopefully) action-packed third installment. 

Alina and Mal race across land and sea in an attempt to outrun the Darkling and discover how Alina’s powers can save their world as they know it. Their romance was all over the place and no where at all, but not in a fun way. I needed more from them but luckily, some new characters held this book on their backs, so here’s to seeing where those storylines end up!
