Es entretenido, me gustó menos que el anterior, creo que porque se tarda demasiado en
hallar a quien es el asesino de Crystal y solo al final hay un poco de la cruel guerra féerica y me dejó con ganas de saber más sobre su mundo y como es que se iban y volvían a nuestro mundo, que pasó con Dillon, si se muere al final o qué. No me gustó para nada que Sookie vuelva a ser una persona indefensa y que la molieran a muerte de nuevo y que de nuevo Eric sacase provecho de su situación vulnerable.

Me está costando un mundo acordarme ya de todos los personajes y sus nombres.
No sé qué tiene esta saga que es tan adictiva y media malonga, pero acá estoy por leer el próximo libro. Necesito terminar de una buena vez con esta saga.

Additional trigger warnings that were not in the system: graphic death of a pregnant woman and minor mention of death of a second pregnant woman. 

I’ve been reading the series and dang it I’m going to finish but at this point it feels like the author is going for shock factor with the murders and violence portrayed in the story and the romance is a sideline that I am losing hope for an ending that will feel like the path to get there was okay. 

This book in the series certainly hit the ‘I’m having much less fun with this’ feeling home. I’m trying to be optimistic that it will improve.

Questo volume mi è piaciuto abbastanza, soprattutto per le interazioni tra la protagonista ed Eric, a mio parere il personaggio più interessante della serie. E, dati gli eventi di questo libro, credo che finalmente il personaggio di lui sarà ancora più presente nei prossimi volumi. 
Inoltre, ho gradito sorprendentemente la parte più politica dell'opera.
