I didn't enjoy this as much as the first one, but I still sped through it and I enjoyed being back in the world! I did think it lost something especially in the main characters' relationship - the dialogue felt unlike them and it was all a bit forced. It felt a bit crowded as well, but I did especially enjoy the end action sequence!

An excellent sequel to Fourth Wing. It’s nice to see the world-building and plot twists continue (Rebecca Yarros is a master of cliffhangers I didn’t see coming). I enjoyed watching Violet, her friends, and Xaden continue to live their lives together. I don’t see how Yarros can keep this up for three more books, but I’m very much looking forward to the next one!
