I find some parts a little dragging. The pacing is so slow and it made me bored sometimes. The last chapters also feels anticlimatic and underwhelming after all the long buildup. But just like the first book, I loved the Arab representation and that it still feels magical to read. The characters have a much deserved ending too and I think that's a big plus, especially Nasir and Zafira's slow burn relationship.
