The plot didn't advance much, and when it was progressing, it was hard to follow. The flashbacks were confusing and the alternate POV wasn't used enough to be effective, I often forgot that I was reading from another perspective.
The chemistry between Adrian and Isolde is gone, all they do is argue and sleep together.
That being said, I do look forward to the next book, I am hopeful for Isolde and Adrian and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they can reignite their spark and at least have somewhat of a happy ending.

This was so good! I couldn‘t stop reading!!
It started where the first book endet and got straight forward.
Though adrian and isolde got finally together and she remembered there were still fights, discussions, fucking, love making, deep talk, betrayal, secrets, sobs, caring. It wasn‘t this fairytale relationship.
This book was so much deeper!
The side characters, world building, the integration of the past, the end ( OMG!).
The empowerment in this book was enormous and i felt it.
I had some goosebumps moments in this books.
The battle cry of isolde before the battle started? goosebumps!
The past before she got burnt and this secret was released? GOOSEBUMPS! 😭
I really really can’t wait for the third book!

We always fight and fuck.
That's the plot. There are some reveals in there, somewhere. Somewhere...
But that's mostly it. Isolde and Adrian fight and fuck. And do it again. And again.
I was quite angry reading it, but anger that drives me to read the next one. I'm disappointed in myself, truly, but I'm committed to the end.
