I loved Rosalind and Orion’s bickering and their slow burn rival spies into romance. It made the twist at the end even better tbh.

I was surprised by most of the revelations in this book. There were enough red-herrings that I was led astray until the very end, yet it made almost perfect sense. Almost, because I’m still not 100% sure about Priest.
The only reason I’m not giving this 5 stars (apart from the Priest thing) is that there wasn’t enough of Oliver/Celia for me, and that the short story at the end didn’t feel like much explanation.
Again, I’ll be looking forward to the next release in this incredible series. In the meantime, I’ll just have to read the short stories (which are also absolutely GORGEOUS! All those books are so pretty 😍) and catch up with other favourite characters.

Definitely read the These Violent Delights duology before this so that you can know the callbacks to characters as well as understand certain cameos. It's not "necessary" because there are good summaries to what happened, but you'll enjoy it more and also it spoils the first duology if you don't.
Really enjoyed this one and can't wait for the sequel!
