I received this book from NetGalley for review.
This book, much like the rest of the books in this series, felt rushed. A lot happens in a pretty short amount of time. And I don't know when Elle became the main-main character when I assumed Bry would be. I like that Knox and Bry are active parts of the story again, but Bry was the more interesting character (for me) than Elle was. I like her as a character, but her personality is a little one-note sometimes. I also don't feel that Alec is as interesting as the other male characters in this series. Both these characters read younger than their 18 years, and that makes them sound immature, if they'd been 16 their nativity would have fit better.
I did like learning more about the Queen of Hearts. She was a highlight of this book for me.
It just feels like the cast of characters is getting to big, and some key characters that I liked from earlier books in the series have been pushed to the background.
