4.5

Jaw dropping, action packing, heart wrenching sequel. In classic SJM style, this book trumps the first in the series (although I loved TOG and still rate it highly). It was really exciting to see the way the character arcs played out in this one, and I feel like I can now see the overarching series plotline ahead.

The second half of the book was definitely better than the first and I genuinely struggled to put it down once I hit the end of part one (if you know you know). Not sure how I managed to avoid spoilers for so many years.
Figured out that ending twist a good few chapters before the reveal but it still had me gasping.


Not much more to say other than I loved it and bring on the next book!
