God this series has tanked for me. Like every other chapter had some sort of "major" revelation. I needed some consistency this book could not provide. The overused trope of Poppy being relatively innocent is getting old as hell too. I do enjoy how badass Poppy is and how much she is growing physically and emotionally but I swear this next book has to be better because I BARLEY made it through these last 50 pages.

I really wanted to give this book 5 stars but it's obvious that it wasn't throughly edited and there was A LOT that could be cut out making it easier to read and you wouldn't lose anything from the plot of the story. I don't need 2 paragraphs describing everyone's appearance JLA come on.
