Slightly better than the first so that’s something! It still felt like a big bunch of nothing until the very end when things actually started happening. Too much talk, not enough action.

I thoroughly enjoyed the first book, but I enjoyed this one so much more!
I found the characters much more loveable, I found the sexy scenes more relatable and the tense scenes had me on the edge of my seat.
I devoured it in two days, I could barely go about my usual daily activities without debating my theories or plotting what might happen next!
A series that finally levels the excitement I had for ACOTAR!!

I absolutely adore Lance Orion with Darcy but I find myself unable to commit to their relationship after the scene about fated mates and how if they don’t go right, shit goes sideways and with the twins facing shit 24/7, she is obviously doomed to a troubled future in that relationship, though I really hope they succeed…
I prefer Tory with Caleb; who I am greatly warming up to. Though alike my feeling with ‘Dorian’, I have a feeling she won’t work out with either him or Darius.

I’m just hoping things start to level out for them now, that they eventually end up on the throne with their orders revealed (which I’m dying to find out)!!!
