Here comes an unpopular opinion, this is honestly my favourite book in the series.
It was full of action, I was never bored and I finished it quicker than I thought I would. I read this in 3 days because I was so eager to know what happens next.
But as much as I am plot-driven, the main reason I like this book so much is because how much I relate to Lily when I read this.
We find out in the beginning of the book that Lily's parents are going through a divorce, and even though it did effect her greatly she didn't show it. Which is exactly what was happening to me at the time that I read this. I really connected and related to Lily on a deeper level which is really rare for me.

Was a little weird at the very end.
Darryll basicall  revealed to Lily that he has a crush on her. They're technically step-cousins, so they're not genetically related, but still a little weird to me. Maybe I'm coming from a different view though since I haven't experienced having step-family.

The thing with Galina is that she is such a pain in the ass. La belle dame sans merci. Truly she is. Should she ever cross my path, I'd willingly flee like a scaredy cat.
