I loved the first installment of this duology, and I didn't think it was possible, but I loved this sequel even more! These books are something special, and Avi Silver is a truly skilled writer.

The characterisation was as strong as ever right from the start, and I fell in love with these characters all over again - even Ahn, the new addition to the group. The world-building went up another notch, giving us the same vibrancy and richness from the first book, with added lore around Ahn's background which I did not expect, but which was woven expertly into the narrative. 

I loved watching Sohmeng explore her relationship with the circumstances of her birth even further and how that ties in with her personality, her relationships, and even her gender to an extent. There's real heart to this story, and I found myself tearing up (in a good way) at the end. I highly recommend giving these books a try.
