adventurous dark

• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

Just as exciting as the first! It's a long book, but there's never a dull moment. The author also does a great job of making the last characters you'd expect to like likable. Def not for young kids.
