Okay, I think I’m officially hooked & totally invested in the characters now. While sometimes I got a tad overwhelmed by all the lore & character name dumping (I literally think I need to make or obtain a mind map with all the players in this lol), I really found myself wanting to know more with each chapter that finished. 

It took me a while to get on-board with Axel having his own chapters, but by the end I think it was necessary to include! Nothing against the fella, I actually really love his character - I just tend to stay invested in the main "couple" *wink.

Luka is my fav character ❤️ 

I’m unsure if I’ll be diving into book #3 right away (I‘m a tad fatigued bc they are such long-ass books lol), but I’m looking forward to finding out where the story will take me & these characters!

Story line picks up from the first book and takes off! Our FMC finally finds her power and not just her magic. It does end on kind of a cliffhanger, and I am impatiently waiting for book 3.

This was not as good as book one to me, but I still really loved it. This book is one big miscommunication trope, so be warned. But that is almost the DNA of the MMC. Everyone is shocked that the FMC doesn’t trust them, when they all lie and omit things from her.  While the twist wasn’t shocking to me I also didn’t necessarily see it coming. I’m definitely going to read book three tomorrow.
