With up the set up there are also a lot of character development. I thought the development was good and needed in fleshing out some of the characters. With all the character development it did feel like the action scenes lacked in comparison.
All in all I really liked the book and want to finish the series soon.

But next to the plot points, this book was about recovery of trauma. And I think the book handled that well. We see how different characters handle it all in their own ways. When it comes to character development, the series needed this middle part.

I really enjoyed Lei's arc, and how she sees more than the others, maintains her heart of gold despite her own personal battles and the effects of war around her.
Second time reading Girls 2, and still the revelations of how far some characters go to defeat the evil King chills me.
Also liked the new perspectives of characters, because it broadens the scope of an all-out war, seeing it from the points of view from people all over the country of Ikhara.
Excited for Girls 3!
