This is an amazing read, and now I shall wait for the third book.

This book hits the ground running. There is so much going on when reading. The drama, betrayals, and the fights this book has and even the series as a whole so far is just ahh. I love every moment of it. The plot carries on from the first book along with the character growth, which is just perfect.

I cannot wait for the third book. I highly highly recommend reading this series.

Well let’s say I’m conflicted, I liked children of blood and bone, it wasn’t the best book ever but I liked it still… but this sequel isn’t it for me and I don’t need to read book 3. I’m going to end things here. The characters where annoying, the plot was cluttered and the ending… well the ending was a dumpster fire 🔥. I wanted to love this book so badly or at least enjoy it but it just wasn’t for me.
