A History of Madness by Rebecca Crunden
5.0
I loved that this book kept the same feeling of adventure as the one previous, and the stakes just keep getting higher for these characters.
While I still absolutely loved this book, I will admit I didn't like reading from Nate's perspective as much as I did from Kitty's. I think that is just a personal preference now that I've thought about it more though. You're always going to like reading from the perspective of characters you like better. I originally tagged this read as four stars because I didn't really like Nate as much in this book as I did in the first book, but it's still a really well written story that is worth reading. I think my actual rating would be 4.5 if goodreads let us do that.
I also appreciated some darker themes being explored as we get more and more little hints throughout about how the kingdom works and how everyone is connected.
(Also I definitely should've put two and two together about Nate, all the hints were there, but I did not and I almost gasped when I found out.)
