The main couple has, like, basically no chemistry and I was not rooting for them. 

Also, chapter 17 —I think— has like a full on like non-con scene between the two main characters and like I just cannot overlook that and then root for the main guy. 

Like they’ve cursed, hurt, stabbed, harassed, and even DRUGGED each other.


Not for me.

This is NOT a YA book. This is very much older YA/adult fantasy. Quite sexual for a YA book, not that I’m complaining! I just don’t want parents thinking this is a good series for their 14/15 year old to read.

There are so many plot holes and hardly any answers. I’m hoping they will be uncovered in the next book.

I loved the first book, but this once instantly took a nose dive off the deep end “add all the plot points and do nothing with them” and “let’s make the character bipolar.” 

Emilia was so strong and then she became so insufferable.

Aahhhhh that ending! The second half of this book was fantastic! I could not put it down! I really enjoyed the whole story.

One of my theories was correct and I have another theory which I hope will be revealed in the next book.
