Sadly became boring and a chore to read. The story was very slow and I started to dislike the relationship between the two main characters, it became a little to toxic for me. Shame as I loved the first one.

Well, I'm not really sure what I was expecting with the sequel, but if I were to distill this book down, there was a lot of set up, but not much payoff.  I don't think I care enough about the characters to continue reading the series.
