The Praise: The side characters really stood out to me in this one. The hybrids really clawed their way into my heart.

The Critique: I felt kind of misled by the potential romance that was set up between Carlota and Montgomery
and how it never came to fruition.

Final Thoughts: Overall the book just felt kind of…fine. I didn’t have any strong feelings either way.
