What.The.F*ck.
Kept me on edge (like fourth wing) but it got more confusing as pages went by. Filled with the info and world-building we missed in tbe first one.
Usually the second book in a series is a bit heavy and hard to read, setting the plot is difficult and sometiems slow, it is slow but filled with action and most of the chaoters end in a cliffhanger (which personally I loved it). The pace was sometimes weird but not necessarily in a bad way.
As always, the dragons and their internactions is the best part and I loved how knit close they all are by the end, how the friendship in the squad gets better and better and I LOVE Jersinia (hoping to see more of her in the next books).
Overall, I think it's best than the first one, with more drama and politics, setting the plot for the next books but that ending... Rebecca we need to talk. Seriously. It affected me greatly (but I'm a bit disappointed though, not the first time reading something like that).
