Thank you Netgalley for the ARC

An excellent, heartbreaking, full circle conclusion to the duology. 

This book is much more politic-heavy than book one. I appreciated the three different POVs, especially since characters were constantly being separated. It's definitely a story of "if it can go wrong, it will go wrong", but I enjoyed that almost nothing went to plan which made the story slightly less predictable. It really highlighted the growth of the characters as the story progressed since they had to constantly pivot and think on their feet.
