⭐⭐⭐⭐✨
Such a wonderful book - it’s even better than the first!
Another story line packed with excitement, twists, turns and chaos. Also there are somehow even more layers to the characters revealed plus further great development of their connections and relationships.
Jesper has firmly been cemented as my favourite. I just love his sense of humour but also his struggles.
I’m looking forward to diving back into the Grishaverse with the books outside of this duology.
