This book was SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE FIRST ONE!!!!

The found family aspect, the banter, the love story. Everything was *chefs kiss* 

I’m so happy I powered through, the world building was so beautiful. I wanna live here without all the mortal peril and war and crap. Just to hang out 💁‍♀️

Side note: Tamlin, rot in hell, blondie. I hate your face, your guts, and your audacity.

This book—wow. Why did it take me so long to finish it?! This was really a rollercoaster of emotions and I was certainly not prepared for what was coming. It was written so freaking well! It was so, so good. Love, hate, everything. I wanted to trash the book (not really, love this baby) because SJM wrote it so well. Could you get through all the stages of happiness and grief in a minute. It's a ride, but it's definitely worth it. When you finished the first book, don't let it take too long to finish the second becauze I regret that part. Good thing though: I started my year and finished January with a really good book. I'm still utterly shocked that I don't know what to say except for that it was so good. And I will repeat that.
