The writing is very vague during action scenes which I was really not a fan of but the story is still great. The romance is still very weirdly developed but I just choose to ignore it. 
The characters are likable but the political conflict is honestly more interesting for the first time. Both sides have genuinely good points of view and there’s no clear good or bad, which I absolutely love. The one thing I was not a fan of was the Lucy chapters. I realize they play a role in helping the reader understand the full story but there were definitely better ways to tell us what was going on than those confusing and irritating bits. 
Overall just a good, fast-paced read.
