So much darker and grittier than the first. Jasmine Throne felt fairly complete to me and I wasn’t sure how she would continue, but she opened up everything way bigger than before. Some of the writing was ridiculous (positive), I can’t believe she came up with some of the lines in here. Bhumika and Rao are my loves and I wish the whole world for them. Absolutely cannot wait for the next.
