I didn’t think it was possible for this one to destroy me more than the first, but here I am. Destroyed. 

SO well done. I had to pace myself because the darkness and hate were so well written that I needed breaks. My heart is still aching for each of the characters, and for how desperately I just wanted them to listen to one another.

I really liked this book. It was really good, but very very sad and there was also quite a lot of violence. 
There is also a lesbian background couple <3 I am definitely looking forward to the third book. Hopefully their story ends well! >~<
