The plot was super predictable, I also didn't care much for the writing style. I didn't love the first book but have a thing about needing to finish series. I think in both books the way drugs are discussed is stereotypical. If there is another book after this I will not be reading it.

A very solid duology closer with room for a new series (if we don't get a new series starring whasserface who knows Jatin from school I will be a tad surprised). I liked the first one enough to actually read the second (are verrrrrrrrrrrry rare occurrence) and while I thought the villain was underdeveloped, there was still enough fun for me to really like the book. As with the first book, the main characters are crazy likable and the worldbuilding is super engaging. If you liked Cast in Firelight, you shouldn't miss this one. 4 stars - I really liked it!

Thanks to Netgalley and Delacore Press for the eARC which I received in exchange for an unbiased review. Bound by Firelight is available on 18 January.
