Definitely lower stakes than the first book, which was a bit of a disappointment. More Hunger Games than A Darker Shade of Magic. A+ love triangling though.

Overall Thoughts:
⁕ This book is all about character development! I love how much it builds the reader’s understanding of Lilah and Kell, as well as secondary characters that weren’t as prominent in the first book.

⁕ The main conflict of the series takes a backseat to make way for smaller character subplots, but never fear — it's there by the end.

⁕ I love that Schwab expands beyond the city of Red London and lets the reader see more of the magical world that Kell lives in.
