A lot slower to read than the first. The love story was a lot more front and center but a lot of back and forth bickering that could sometimes get annoying.

SOOOOO, this book was might I say not as good as the first. There was action and stuff but I wasn't that...what's the word.....intrigued.

And it's not because it wasn't intriguing, it's because nobody wants to watch a bunch of assholes gather around and kill people. I really tried to like the VIla and demon characters, but I never really understood their struggle. And it became very VERY hard too like Alyce, after what she did to Briar. I mean I know it was a part of her arc, but she did a whole Danaerys though.

But there were characters that I loved. Derek was a new edition and he was just amazing. Kind and sweet. Also, Aurora was still as amazing as she was in the first book. I warmed up to Regan until she went AWOL and blew up a ship filled with innocent people.

Like I said, I did like this book. But I'm still going to rant about how much I FUCKING HATED the characters. There is something disturbing about watching people who have gone through nothing torture innocent people, for over 100 years. Most of the "tortured" magical characters in the book treated humans like assholes and it was not fun to watch. The worse thing about it that is was from the main point of view of a villain. So instead of watching from a hero's perspective and seeing them agree with how twisted the maltreatment is, they instead enjoy it and it's...disturbing.

That's all I will say

i was honestly very disappointed, the romance was lacking, there was an insane amount plot holes, and ugh I'm just sad that this didn't give what i wanted it to
