I am loving this series but this one just wasn’t as good as the first one to me. It’s still wonderful but it was lacking the action and all of the adventure that I felt in the first one. It came but not until the book was 75% done. I will be starting book 3 when my hold is available at the library!

I first read the book in 2015. Back then I gave it 4 stars, but right now (2022); I'm going for 3 stars.
To be honest, I had the same feeling as with part 1. It's fine, but not like the movies. The magical feeling lacks and it's out of balance. The story starts very slow, which I like because the details give a better idea about the world and the setting. Yet, when the action comes, everything goes downhill. Every important scene is rushed, mostly the last one.
The books are okay, but I still prefer the movies. It feels as if the books are 'missing' something.
