I actually really enjoyed this - much more than I thought I was going to! Looooved reading this from Oak’s point of view, he was a little confusing in the first book, so this really made me like his character.
Having Wren be so mysterious for this one was such a good idea, she was our narrator in the first one, so like Oak, I thought I knew her - but her actions were saying something else! Just all very cleverly done!
A lovely ending as well, and a perfect sprinkle of Carden and Jude in it!
