This book made me love new characters, but hate old ones. I loved some parts, but certain lines detracted from Nesta's journey and I found myself hung up on those flaws. Certain plot points weren't able to make me suspend my disbelief. I will continue the series, but this book felt like a means to an end. I loved Nesta, but perhaps if some lines or scenes were cut, it would have been a stronger story.
