adventurous dark emotional medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? Yes

This had a lot of the same good things as the first, but I found it extremely exposition-heavy which often bogged it down. I also found some of the logic a bit strange based on all the rules we’ve already learned. 

Still, I really enjoyed it & I liked seeing more of what the school could do. Need to start book 3 soon!!
