Overall this was a very tense and exciting 2nd installment to the series, I again loved the magic system and how the new aspects were incorporated. I cried at some points and l I enjoyed the new characters that we got to meet, I did however find the interactions between the main characters infuriating. There was so much miscommunication and overly emotional thinking that I felt annoyed and frustrated for the majority of the book. This is YA but the actions I found so childish and stubborn and some of the relationships didn't make sense to me. I will be reading the next book as I definitely need to know what happens next.
