holy shit.
holy fucking shit.
this was....ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.
I think the only reason why I'm not giving this book 5 stars is that I felt like something was missing for it reaching that ranking. however, this was MARVELOUS.
I entered this book with almost no expectations bc even though tvd was very good at the beginning, I thought it ended up being very lost at the end and that a second book was not necessary. nonetheless, this book was way better than the previous one. the angsty and the I-have-to-hate-you-but-I-love you Roma was like super hot and the tension with Juliette.....absolutely showstopping. however, I felt like the monsters thing was a bit unnecessary and the mission Roma and Juliette made to the near city was basically nonsense for the plot. Mars and Ben were amazing and so was Celia's and rosalind's storylines. the end was absolutely heart breaking but I also felt that the epilogue needed to be focused on Alisa and Chloe did that very very well.
overall, the writing here was way less tedious than in tvd (thanks god) but still gorgeous and this book was very very nice. just that, that something was missing and the fact that this felt like the monsters were just there to connect the two books.
