“oh, goldfinch. you think i’m a monster now, but you haven’t seen anything yet.”

i cannot wait to see where the rest of the series takes auren. i am really counting on midas’ demise, especially if it comes by auren’s hand. there was a lot of world building in this book, though not as much as the first, which made it a smoother read for me. if anyone reads this review and decides to read this book, keep the quote i attached in mind.

This barely had a conflict to it so it was definitely a filler book but wow I could not stop reading. Is this the best literature ever written? No, but I was thoroughly entertained and I love these characters. I can’t wait to read the next one.

okay so. once again. this book is ass. like its not good. but for some reason im gonna pick up the next one so i guess that says something?? it feels like watching trash tv like ur sitting there going “why am i watching this??” but you also dont turn it off.
also this book is literally just shatter me but the inverse - where people with powers are higher up. like lovked up girl with powers who thinks she can trust someone and turns out hes the one who was locking her up and she falls in love with the rival commander who everyone fhinks is so scary but is soft for her. just go read that.
so for an actual review -
the first “big reveal” of this book was literally pointless. it was clear that there was supposed to be some big lead up to finding out what auren is. but?? it was barely hinted at in the book so it wasnt like i was even thinking about it. there was no suspense. and when it WAS hinted at - they basically just told you the answer. so her big climax moment was very anticlimactic. the other twist kind of surprised me i guess. hopefully there is more focus on rip and the other fourth soldiers in the next book bc those are the only characters i actually like and auren is less unbearable!
