Before I say what I like, please check trigger warnings for this book – as this is brutal.
This book gives ACOTAR vibes, but what ACOTAR did that this book didn’t do was world building. It did it better in this book than the last book I will say that. The book is an easy read and you do get sucked into the storyline and the drama and the tension. I think this book was much better because of Rip. He gives me Rhysand vibes whilst Midas is like the whiny Tamlin. I can see the compassions quite easily, expect Rip is 1000% more scary than Rhysand. I love the fact that Auren stood up for herself in this book and was like do one, I'm not getting back into this cage. I would have loved to learn more about the Queen’s plans but I'm assuming we will learn more in the next book. The cliff hanger at the end as well made me want to throw the book against a wall.

Auren learns to look more at her self as a powerful person. She has trusted Midas for a decade to keep her safe because he did when she was down on her luck. She is seeing “cracks” in their relationship and she is analyzing that internally.
