The Mime Order by Samantha Shannon
4.0

`Words are everything. Words give wings even to those who have been stamped upon, broken beyond all hope of repair.’

I really enjoyed the Bone Season, although I found the world a little confusing… but it all came together in The Mime Order.

The second book in the series is steady paced with plenty of action and great character development. I’m fully invested in Paige’s story despite not being a fan of the chosen relationship trope.

This book is futuristic with a twist of Victorian London and it really ramped up the political intrigue. The ending was a cliffhanger so straight on to The Song Rising (#3)!
