continuing off of the first in the series, this book kept up the pace and was very fun. i enjoyed the over arcing plot lines and their resolutions, and how there wasn't one 'Big Fight to solve Big Problem'. the only reason i gave a 4 star and not a 5 is that i felt like this book didn't feel like it's own book, but very much like a middle child.

I need to process but if I could give this book more than five stars, I would. It's beautifully written with action and complex relationships. I love this one even more than the first.

This book just did not work for me. I think Katherine Arden is an amazing writer and her prose is absolutely beautiful. But I couldn't stand the MC in this book. I thought she was so dumb; it was almost unbelievable. I just couldn't root for her the same way I did in the first book.

As good as the first. I spent a few pages furious enough to not want to finish, but it did not ultimately disappoint.
