3.0

This book unfortunately didn't give me what I was hoping for. At the start I thought Halle was really relatable, and anyone who's read the other MH series books knows Henry is a gem. I found their initial relationship a bit strange

like what do you mean they're just friends but hes pulling her onto his lap and sleeping next to her after only just meeting her

. I thought it was taking a good turn around the half way point but the end really fell over in my opinion. Just as I was getting into a scene and wanting to read more, the chapter would end and it'd be a whole other day. The bits I really wanted to read were instead just described in hindsight which made me feel like I was being robbed a little bit.

I expected Halle and Henry to steal my heart but I can now be certain Russ and Aurora still hold that crown and Wildfire is the better book. In fact, the parts where Russ was present were some of my favourite parts of this book, which is not a great sign. Despite her being relatable in the beginning, Halle quickly did become irritating and I struggled to see her motivations in the second half.
