Reviews with content warning for Toxic friendship - Amari och det farliga spelet

Brain-Dump of My Thoughts. I cannot believe that the plot line doesn't get resolved in this book, Amari lost her magic, and all the discrimination Amari was put through by Harlowe and everyone else. I'm only slightly frustrated by the cliffhanger because I can't pick up the next book in the series instantly. The reveals at the end weren't quite satisfying, but I did not see them coming (Merlin using the time-stop stone, especially Dylan winning the crown and a war inevitably starting). I was waiting on what Harlowe's supernatural ability was, and I expected it to be much more dangerous

'Amari and the Great Game' is a wonderful follow-up to 'Amari and the Night Brothers' that expands upon the story and the characters that we are first introduced to in the first book. The supernatural world is thrown into further disarray and it is up to Amari and her friends to help right it. This is one of the wonderful middle books that doesn't feel like one as Alston uncovers some mysteries and plot points that were set up in book one while also preparing us for further mysteries and important moments in the future. It's hard to say more without spoilers but I will say that this series is quickly becoming one of my favorites and I'm having a really hard time waiting for book 3.
