This installment in the series was mostly enjoyable and felt very out of place from the rest of the books. I thought Regan was an interesting character and her world was fun if a little underdeveloped. The prose issues I have with previous books in this series were nonexistent in this one, so that was a nice surprise. This was also a much more fun and lighthearted novel which I appreciated after some of the books I've  been reading recently.

This book ultimately felt too underdeveloped for me to have strong feelings. Each important scene was far too short, there was little feeling of atmosphere throughout, the only character that got any real development was Regan. I think the end of the book happened ten pages after the climax. Left feeling very meh, but it was such a fast read I didn't feel like I wasted my time.
