I didn't really like this one as much as the other entries in the series when I first read the original text, but she really elevated her writing and pulled everything together in a much more cohesive way in this new edited version.
Really I just love this series in general - the worldbuilding is wonderful, the characters are fantastic, and this book in particular has a really twisty murder mystery that is a ton of fun to read.
My only main complaint about this book is that Paige and Arcturus are separated for a great chunk of it (my shipper heart just wants them to be together 24/7).

<Spoiler> Book #2 of The Bone Season series is an exciting adventure as you continue to follow Paige Mahoney following the famous break out of Sheol I. She and the others that escaped with her are forced to live in hiding. Paige reluctantly goes back to her Mime Lord for protection from the syndicate. Everything changes when the UnderLord and his gang is murdered. Because of this, a scrimmage is to be held between those who would like to assume the position of UnderLord/Queen. <Spoiler>
This book was AMAZING! There were so many twists and turns in this book; I couldn’t believe all the things that were happening! There are so many *gasp* moments throughout this whole book!
