My earlier sentiment from my review of the first book remains and Nightbane definitely holds some similarities to the ACOTAR series, but I devoured this book. It mag have its fair share of flaws, but u honestly don’t care.

"Nightbane," Alex Aster's follow-up to "Lightlark," dives right back into the thick of things with Isla Crown at the helm, now juggling her rule over two realms. After her epic win, breaking age-old curses and winning hearts, you'd think she'd take a breath. But nope, there's no rest for Isla. This book has her spread thin between her duties and her heart, especially with some not-so-quiet grumblings about whether she truly deserves her spot.

Aster does a fantastic job keeping us on our toes, fleshing out Isla’s struggles with leadership and love against a backdrop of political intrigue and looming disaster. It’s fascinating to see Isla navigate this minefield, especially with betrayal lurking around every corner.

"Nightbane" really ups the ante, exploring deeper themes like the weight of responsibility and the fight to find oneself amidst turmoil. It's a rich, engaging read that doesn’t shy away from the messy intersections of power and personal desire. Definitely a must-read if you enjoyed "Lightlark," and you’re in for some serious developments and nail-biting moments.
