This was quite difficult for me to rate. I loved the book. Enjoyed the characters (some more than others). I found I was invested in some characters more than others so you can guess my annoyance every-time I had to endure a long long chapter from a POV I didn’t particularly care about. And that’s why I gave this book a 4/5 stars (although I was more inclined to rate a 3.5 but cant let the annoying parts out weight the good). It did take forever to finish tho. But I am excited to see more character development!

This book was truly amazing! I laughed, I cried, and I threw my kindle one too many times out of pure devastation and shock…but I made it through (for now). I seriously can’t wait for the next book to come out!

Super slow paced, found myself skipping paragraphs since nothing really happens the majority of the time. We went from one POV in the first book to 6 in this which was completely unnecessary and didn’t add anything. Seemed like a lazy way to get more length out of the book and keep story moving. This needed to be edited down by at least 200 pages.
