5.0

Oh my. This book. Wow. I'm not sure how I'm going to review this, I have so many thoughts. 
If you couldn't already tell by the five star rating, I absolutely loved this book. LOVED IT. 

I picked up Red Tigress yesterday evening with the aim to read a chunk and make progress with it. 5.5 hours later, having not moved for that period of time I finished it. I just could not put it down. Every time I thought about going to bed, something else happened and I needed to read 'just one more chapter'. There is so much action within this wonderful book, from the first chapter you are hit with action and drama and it literally just does not stop. 

I really loved being back with the characters, I really loved to watch them develop and grow. I like that previous characters are mentioned and not forgotten which warms my heart. There are quite a few characters and at times I was confused with who was who however I found by tabbing and annotating the book I was able to quickly pop back and realise very quickly who they were. 

I'm struggling with a review for this book because I loved it so much and seeing as it is the second in the series I am trying not to give any series. Red Tigress is my favourite book of the year so far, for reference it is the 35th book I have read in 2021. It is going to have to be something special to knock it off the top. I can't believe the ending and I just need the next one now. I really do not want to wait!

100% recommend this series.
