Just couldn't get into the characters and I wasnt exactly sure where the plot was. I was about 100 pages in and felt like I was forcing myself.

Physical - such an amazing continuation of this story.

Can’t believe the twists of the ending and who Rip truly is. The betrayal form both kings is abysmal and I’m a bit torn if Rip is good for Auren or not. Glad that she’s finally found her strength and fighting to stay out of the cage.  

Female strength and finding it is a bit theme of this book. Can be an inspiration for others.

Giving this book a 3.5* rating because I was bored with it most of the book. Nothing happened for a while and I actually put it aside to read something else. Had to pick it back up to finish it though because I'm very curious to know what happens next. Nothing very big happened 'til the end but there was still an unexpected event and I'm very curious for the next.

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!
