3.0

They say Romeo and Juliet is the most tragic lovestory there is. So knowing how that ends it shouldn’t be a surprise to have a large foreshadowing of how this book would end…. And that makes it extremely disappointing.

I wanted the happy ending… it felt like we deserved the happy ending after all the struggles they went through to be together… I thought she would change the end so they wouldn’t meet the same fate… but she didn’t and that left me unfulfilled and disappointed  

I really wanted to like this book, but I did not care about the politic struggle that was going on and this book was about 80% just that…. The monsters from book 1 felt like an afterthought, the romance was still more tell than show and felt off. You are constantly reminded that the cast in this book are all 19ish cause they act 19 with their over dramatic actions and stupid decisions!!!

I ended up enjoying this conclusion to the duology just slightly more than the first book. I really enjoy the author's nods to the original retelling without following it super faithfully.

This was a solid sequel - while I wasn’t quite as obsessed with this series as I expected to be I enjoyed it overall and really connected with a number of the characters
