This is why I can't read books by the same author back to back or too quickly after one another, I start to notice the repetitive parts of the series and it doesn't hit as well. This installment took me forever to get through, but I'd still like to continue with the series I just need some space from it for a bit.

This book did a good job highlighting what it is like for Elena to come back to her city changed as an Angel and having to relearn how it feels to be in her own home, showing how people can be accepting or not about these changes.
This book also focuses on paternal figures and how they shape the lives of their children even if they aren't actively involved in their lives anymore. I felt the book also focused on these elements more than the mystery that was there to keep the plot going. Whilst that is not a bad thing but it should be someone people are aware of when reading this book.

We return to New York as Elena and Raphael's relationship deepens. They set boundries and share old hurts. Both have family issues pop up.
Elena has to deal with her father and the realisation that her youngest sister is also Hunterborn. Raphael (and the rest of the world) on his end has to face the fact that his mother is waking from her Sleep. An act that has great impact on everyone on the planet.
I loved this book as I enjoyed the mix between plot and character development.
