I am absolutely in love with this cast of characters, though?! Well, or Alucard, anyway. And Rhy as well, they're both amazing.
Although I think it was an interesting concept and helped exploring the cultures outside of Arnes, I just cannot see how the tournament was necessary at all. Neither Kell nor Lila really have a strong enough reason to compete. They're just competing to ... do something.
But then again, I did enjoy this book very much. I especially liked Kell and Alucard's dynamic. Kell doesn't seem to get along very well with anyone, really. Loving that for him.
To be honest, I can't remember all the warnings to put here.

It felt so long but I enjoyed the tournament a lot and Lila's development has been great (she was kinda insufferable during the first book) and I like her more now.
Kell per usual is my number one boy and I want to give him a hug asap
The king and queen can both fuck off and all of the ppl of red london

I found it so heartbreaking that Kell desperately loves his brother and his parents basically turned their back on hike because his magic is dangerous

I am rooting so hard for Lila. She’s a hero. She’s my hero. I love how ruthless and unstoppable she is.
This book did not FEEL like 500 pages. The pace is AMAZING. I’m so captivated I want to proceed immediately to book three. But oh, I love this world, and how rich and magical it is and how HIGH the STAKES ARE.
(Also I’m so here for Rhy the bisexual disaster prince. RHY. you are my favorite character and that’s saying a LOT since Lila and Kell are both so wonderful.)
