Amazing. Gorgeous. My heart is full.
This whole duology has been about healing , and this book was even more emotional and beautiful than the first one.
I loved all of the characters so much, they've really captured my heart. Laini Taylor has the most wonderful imagination. I'm so impressed with this being a YA series but still managing to touch some deeper layers of the story and its themes. My hope is that Laini will visit this world (or the others, if you know what I mean) again someday.

How can a sequel be better than the original? I loved this book so much! I hope Laini Taylor creates another adventure with these characters as they are timeless.

⭐️: 4.5/5
- This book was a great sequel and conclusion to Strange the Dreamer! Where SD felt like all build up, Muse of Nightmares gives you all the conflict and resolution
- There’s no shortage of big feelings while reading this book. From love to hate, hope to despair, you are constantly enthralled
- Wow, this book ends with an HEA, it does not feel forced or unrealistic. The characters really have to work to earn it. I love how much the world was expanded and explained
- So many redemption arcs that are done BEAUTIFULLY

A low 4 stars. Honestly, didn't enjoy it as much as the first one (which was a very high 4 stars).
