No podía parar de leer, me encantan los plot twists, como no me esperaba nada de lo que pasó. Los nuevos personaje, los nuevos lugares.
Hace mucho no sentía esta emoción leyendo algo, tenía el corazón hecho un puño al final.

Umm, just not what I wanted.

This book was a hard one for me to get through after absolutely LOVING The Fourth Wing:

Pros:
-Stronger character development
-More world building and understanding the politics
-More Xaden and Violet
-Cliffhanger ending

Cons:
-VERY slow (try to get to the 30% mark for the ability for things to speed up)
-Just when it starts getting good, it hits a plateau
-The steamy scenes from Xaden and Violet didn't hit....but maybe because I felt like they are literally teens
-The majority of the book is boring with little crumbs of entertainment.

Read it because you have to, and we shall wait for the third book.

“My house. My chair. My woman.”

Dear lord Rebecca you ruined all men for us!
Once again Rebecca wrote a masterpiece, leaving us hooked from beginning to end!
Could have been a shorter book? Yes it could, because those initial fights between Vi and Xaden could have been cut shorter. And Vi got on my nerves with the unreasonable jealousy, the man worships the ground you stand!
But those 100 last pages where 70% of the real important story happened makes it worth of 5⭐️.
Just wish we could have seen more of every other character and not just glimpses of one or two.

This one was a bit slower and had less of a big overall reaching plot. The end was a cliff hanger like I was told! I liked the first one more because more happened, but I see why this one was the way it was because we learned a lot more about the world.
