A review by daffz
Defy the Worlds by Claudia Gray

3.0

Maybe a bit closer to a 3.5, but rounded down because I kept failing to pick this book back up.

I did enjoy Defy the Worlds, but looking back on it, I think I mostly enjoyed returning to the characters I saw in Defy the Stars. When I reflect on the actual happenings in this book, I don't feel particularly invested in the plot. It was entertaining, but didn't capture me nearly as much as the first one did. I thought it was a bit convoluted, and quickly grew tired of
Spoilerthe Simon storyline
. I also didn't really love the ending.

I do still really look forward to the next installment, as I'm very curious what will happen. I am too invested in these characters not to care, but I don't think this book was as good as the first one.
