So much to think about! I hate a fantasy book that tries to force its magical elements to a resolve. Perhaps because there is still a book left in the series Johansen felt comfortable leaving some questions unanswered. I was highly skeptical of the Better World but the acknowledged fallability of the plan leaves me open to considering it further. Lily was rather irritating but ultimately was a good foil for Kelsea. The exploration of her own history gave depth to Kelsea and Lily served as a creative outlet for her anger. The finest writing in the world? No. But one of the most engrossing stories I have read in a long time. I can't wait for the next installment.

2.5-3 stars spoiler alert - if one has "magic" sapphires, it seems like there would be simpler solutions to several things...

this book was definitely more action packed, yet it still wasn't the perfect read bc i didn't really care for most of the side characters..

It's one of those books where you can't fall asleep without knowing what happens next. Discard all personal responsibilities before beginning this series.
