emotional fast-paced

• Loveable characters? Yes

3.5

I thought this was a pretty okay and satisfying conclusion to the duology. I think the plot had a lot less direction than the first book which made me enjoy quite a bit less than the first book. However, I still adored the characters and the attention given to the political backdrop, and the ending was pretty great.

I really enjoyed it; however, I don't think I will be re-reading it any time soon.

erinbarton's review against another edition

adventurous dark tense medium-paced

3.0

a lot more political/gang focused than book 1 which personally i didn’t enjoy as much. this book didn’t really feel like the fantasy elements of the monster were really necessary to the plot
however, love the fact that this is a duology and not trilogy as it avoids second book syndrome and the plot being dragged out unnecessarily 
overall thought liked the series - super fun concept and great characters
