This was so fun to return to as an audiobook! I'm excited to re-read A Shadow in the Ember with Stina narrating next!

It took me a while to read this book. It starts so fast paced with a series of shocking reveals and excitIng moments. So after about 8 chapters it naturally dipped because it could not keep that pace. That made it quite slow going for me and I had to take a break, but once I got back into it I enjoyed it and am excited for book 4! 

Poppy is still an absolute badass FMC. Casteel has some dreamy moments, but I’m a bit bored of their relationship… 😬

I’m glad he’s been kidnapped purely because it’s adding some conflict/peril to their relationship and I’m now excited to see Poppy fight for him

4.5 stars! What an ending! I loved every single second of this book but the ending was something else entirely. I cannot wait to pick up the next book.
