Always spoiler review 

So far, my favorite of the series. I loved Cress and Thorne. Even though Cress was a little tiring, I like that her Seeing Thorne as this great guy kind of made him want to be one. I like that him becoming blind showed him frustrated, but never incompetent.  
Wolf's character still weird me out, but also in this world he was literally genetically fucked with to be a bit of a raging monster so 🤷🏼‍♀️ 
I did think the Dr dad reviel was a little bleh, but over all, was exciting and fun. 

I'm so intrigued about Winter.
