The book had a significant amount less of comedy in it compared to the first one. That is really my only gripe with it. And while I understand why, because the characters do not use humor as a coping mechanism like the first does, that was one of the reasons I loved the first so much. The dark romance with amazing one liners thrown in when you least expect. But the story of this book was a lot more impactful. Healing and freedom were large themes and I loved it for the characters we got to know in this book.
