I really love this series, but I'm terrified for Triz and Daph because of the prophecy and their mother. I love Bairre and I love him and Daph together (despite hating most romance), but at this point, I just want to kill him off to spare them or find a way around it. I hate the empress even more now because she manipulated Daphne as much as she did Sophronia and after seeing Daphne's arc I just want to see Daph and Triz get vengeance for literally everything. By the end of the book, Daphne has cemented her spot as my favourite of the narrators just based on the last 12 pages and she and Friv are likely in the best spot to beat her mother. She has literally managed to have everyone rallying around her, has dealt with Eugenia, protected Gideon and Reid and Violie as Sophronia has staked a claim to Temarin with Leopold. I'm going to lose it if Aurelia manages to get to Daphne before Beatriz warns her though. Kind of interested about how she'll use her wish. For the third book, I want to see Empress Daphne. It is a really great series-probably my favourite all-time, and I haven't read the third book yet.

Okay first the bad news. Yes, I think that this book falls into a sophomore slump. It’s a long one but not a lot happens. But I think it does do a really good job of setting the readers up for an explosive third book. It’s not pretty but it did its job.
I also think it was really impressive that Sebastian introduced a new POV character but the storylines were all interesting. I don’t often say that!

This series is so entertaining and unputdownable, with its morally-grey characters and complex plot. I expect some things to happen (or not happen) and I still end up pleasantly surprised! Plus, the magic coming from the stars is super interesting and unique.
Every character brings something different to the table and to the group. I love every single dynamic between them. They're so good.
