I failed to really connect with this as much as the first and third book. It is no doubt a good book, however I didn't save a single quote or cry once, I also put off adding a review so something wasn't clicking for me at the time. It was either a case of middle book syndrome or trope fatigue.
I didn't love that for the first half of the book the main characters were separated, it's something I've seen used far too much in follow-up books to add some angst and it was the 2nd book in a row where the author had chosen to go that route, so I'm willing to hold my hands up to perhaps being unfairly turned off by that trope alone.
