There’s already too much war, militaristic intrigue, and misogyny in the world. I don’t need to read about it in fantasy.

I don’t even know what to say. I’m dead after the ending.

If I'm honest, I can't tell how much I actually like this series versus how much I am reading it out of desperation to see this awful dystopian world toppled. It was pretty fast-paced, high-octane action, which kept me engaged. There was some character development, but I felt that Darrow in particular was somewhat stagnant, struggling with a lot of the same things as in the first book (e.g. trust, taking down a monstrous system without becoming a total monster, etc). Admittedly the last 100 or so pages of the book introduces some major catalysts for character growth and future plot. I have some hopes about how some characters and themes may potentially reshape the revolution against the Society, and I'm sufficiently curious to see where things go.
Also mild gripe with a few things happening off-page just to be like "Aha! Surprise, we are fine because I knew this all along and planned for it and did all these other things! Gotcha!"
