adventurous dark mysterious medium-paced
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

I felt like this was weak compared to The Book That Wouldn't Burn. We didn't see much of
Livira, and she didn't show the same cleverness that I loved so much in the first book
. A new romance was introduced (
Arpix and Clovis
) that I wasn't feeling. There was also a new POV character introduced, Kelcha, who was kind of boring to me. 
I felt like the character development was weak compared to the first book, and that not a lot happened plotwise. It mostly just felt like this was a setup for the finale. 

I listened to the audiobook, so sorry if I spelled any names wrong.
