This is NOT a YA book. This is very much older YA/adult fantasy. Quite sexual for a YA book, not that I’m complaining! I just don’t want parents thinking this is a good series for their 14/15 year old to read.

There are so many plot holes and hardly any answers. I’m hoping they will be uncovered in the next book.

It's a really good written book but it drives me totally crazy.
I instantly started the third book cause the end was just so mean and open again. 
Still love the book and the whole series.

Okay so I don't know where to begin. I liked this book a lot more than the first one!! Emilia and Wrath's chemistry is incredible, omg.
The main aspect that distinguished this from the first book for me was that some of the plot points finally made sense. There's still a lot of things I don't really understand so I hope that in book three, everything will be tied together.
Wrath... I love that man (demon? prince? All of them!). Girl, the way I was giggling and kicking my feet about some of the things he said... he's so protective, too, but not in an unsettling or suffocating way. 
Emilia's character development throughout this book was crazy but it didn't feel far fetched. It actually made sense why she would react in certain ways and she's such a badass now, I love it. (I don't know if I wanna be her or be with her😔💃🏻) Her actions were still a little reckless but definitely less so than in book 1, which was a relief.
This book was also surprisingly funny, I laughed out loud several times.
Last aspect: I really love all of the Princes, they're so funny?? Yes, they're violent and prone to their respective sins but you know... I just love their vibes (especially Gluttony tbh).
See yall for book three xx
