I just can't with this book RN. This story shows the Renegades to have a major lapse in ethics. I was getting so pissed I decided to look ahead to see if this is actually dealt with at all, give what just happened when I left off, and all I can find is a resounding no. IDK if I'll give it another chance in the future, but right now I just can't with this.

the tension both romantically and secret-identity-wise is immaculate! although, there was one part of the plot i didn't like that much but it made for a great discussion and even more tension

I’m not gonna lie, this book got me in a reading slump for a while but goddamn that ending was stressful. So much action was packed into the last few chapters. I was on the edge of my seat the ENTIRE time. The miscommunication can get a bit frustrating but that is literally what I signed up for by picking up this book. I’m too invested in the characters so I’ll definitely continue reading this series.

This is a solid second book to read. Whilst a lot feels like it didn't happen it does spend a bit of time building up with the last 100 pages popping off in a way that the third book can pick up from.

There were some things about the book that I hope will be better explained in the third book,
in particular why Monarch was suspicious of Nova in the first place. Was it just falling asleep in the hospital from the first book. It just seems very weak. Monarch is probably one of the few character that I actually don't like in this series so far.
 
With the ending of this book I cannot wait to see what happens and how everything will unfold. I don't really have an idea of where this could go, but do have some hopes.

The second book grew on me a lot, although I still could predict a lot of things. I love the diversity and uniqueness of the characters that adds a nice touch to this story. I really liked seeing thoughts and feelings of the opposing characters and how they might be more alike than they thought. The plot is filled to the brim and very intriguing so much that you can’t put the book down.  I tend to always like second books in trilogies, and this did not disappoint my expectations. The story has so many cute and interesting details that I always was interested in the situation. Although, the book is more on the heavier side of writing, it is a very worthy for reading. I am looking forward to the big reveal in the next book. <3
