Estuve todo el tiempo intrigada con lo que sucederá, la intrigada de cual será el siguiente movimiento o la siguiente traición.
En un momento de la trama me desespero la poca comunicación que había entre los personajes, si hablaran entre ellos se podrían haber entendido mejor.
Desde inicio a fin estuvo muy bueno el libro le doy 5⭐

This book is tedious to get through in the first 90%, with plot points that repeat and very few satisfying tidbits offered to get you through. It is hard to pick it up and keep reading about the same issues over and over again. The main characters romance is not believable and feels incredibly forced to keep the plot moving, and so many chapters felt irrelevant and unnecessary. That being said— the last 10% is where everything clicks and you can’t put the book down. In the end, it’s a second book in a trilogy and kicks off the bigger issue that will be the center of the final book. I look forward to seeing everything get resolved, but I will probably never read this particular book again.
