El primer libro me gustó mucho, pero en este he tenido la sensación de que no pasaba nada relevante durante gran parte del libro y tampoco ayuda que los protagonistas no se reencuentren hasta casi el final. No ha estado mal, no me ha disgustado y ha estado entretenido pero lo he sentido como si fuese relleno

4.4 stars! I had to rate this one slightly lower than ADSOM because i really struggled to get through the first 340 pages(except for the first few chapters because omg Lila wow). The rest of the book was fast paced and superb, definitely gonna read the last book!

What a pointless book. The real plot doesn’t show up until the last twenty pages. Really disappointed, but I’m going to read the third one anyway because the plot that finally showed up looked good. 

Also Lila is getting on my nerves. Can I have ONE fantasy novel where the female character isn’t a mysterious pixie dream girl?!

I really like this series so far. It’s intriguing and there are some good takers and turns that you don’t expect completely. There’s a little bit of romance but it’s not the main story line and I love the different personalities of the characters all intermixed together.
