The ending was a bit of a miss for me but there were so many positives in this book!
First of all I looooved Raiden’s character. I never thought I would grow to appreciate the guy who made us suffer so much in the beginning 😤😤.
Mariko was also even more awesome in this book and I wish we had gotten more chapters from her perspective 😞😞
I liked the first book more but I still really appreciated this one!
