I enjoyed this book but not as much as the first one. The sisters are still as careless and naive as they were in book one and that seems ridiculous given everything they’ve been through. Their plans for beating the bad guys just seemed silly and  super unrealistic. It was a fun read but I’m glad to be done with the world now.

This was disappointing. Messy and convoluted, confusing yet boring. I was kinda down for the love triangle, actually, but if you want to effectively close the triangle you can’t make me love the bad guy and then undo all the character work in one confusing chapter. Maybe that’s an unpopular opinion? The immediate swap from “bad guy goes good for love” to “just kidding he’s 100% evil” did NOT read. Meh.
