I went into book 2 with hopes of liking it more than book one, and I must say I did!
Book two is centered around Thorne and Laurel, both characters either made an appearance or was mentioned in book one. I didn’t have to get as much as their back story or world building in this one, which made it easier and more enjoyable to read.
Thorne is a guardian, who didn’t have an easy childhood. His mother was sentenced to death after he was born, his father had been cursed and not visible to anyone, his aunt got run out by their uncle, and now his mentor has been lost for a decade. The only person who can help him retrieve him is laurel.
I loved Laurel as a character. I loved her boss attitude, her fearlessness and her ability to take on anything that comes her way with grave. She was the perfect counterpart to Thorne who seemed to only have one emotion. It makes sense for his character. He has a hard time of letting people in for obvious reasons.
I did like Laurel and Thorne as a couple way more than I liked Rush and Clarke. I could just feel the chemistry between them. Even when they messed it up or did sons thing stupid, I still could feel the love between them.
Complete side note: I had really wished Thorne and Laurel adopted Sparrow. I wanted that so badly.
Overall, I enjoyed the book and can’t wait for book 3!
