dark emotional sad tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.75

This is definitely the furthest I got in the series in the past.

Diana’s pregnancy is still shocking. The town splitting up and Caine being king is interesting and it seems Diana and Astrid switch teams so to speak. I was ready to riot if either Edilio or Dekka died. I love Sanjit and Lana and hope that virtue gets to spend time with Dahra in the next book. The bugs were terrifying but I wonder what caused the SDC supernatural death cough to go away. COVID didn’t wrap up that fast. Jack stepping up is nice. Who the fuck is Toto?! Sam recognizes him  but doesn’t explain how or why??? Will Astrid actually develop a power? My god I forgot how insufferable she is in this series! Yes I did want Sam to say I told you so. Taylor switching back to team Caine was gross, officially not a fan. How will beach kids get water? Will there be a war for gas?

not the best in the series so far but it was nice that the time between books was shorter too. I wonder if the countdowns will get progressively shorter in the next two as well.
