This was… not good. I should’ve expected it, considering I rated “Red Queen” only 3 stars. I don’t know why I decided to go further on with the series, but for some reason I did. And it wasn’t that enjoyable! In all honesty, I’m in desperate need of reading books to complete my reading goal and if I wasn’t, I would’ve DNFed this. I never DNF books. For the latter half of the book, I listened to an audiobook version although I own a physical copy.

I don’t feel like writing a full-on review, so here are some of my thoughts from my notes app that I had whilst reading one time!!!

  • i love cal but he’s kinda boring
  • maven is the only character that’s carrying the series and that’s only because he actually has a personality
  • OH AND KILORN AND SHADE, i like them, especially their bantering
    (edit- SHADE DIED. HE WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO I LOVED)
  • mare = lightning girl NOT mareena
  • WE GET IT. ANYONE CAN BETRAY ANYONE. OOOOKAY.
  • cameron is girlboss

I’m done.
