So, considering it’s 3am and I’ve stayed up way too late over the past couple of nights to finish the book, I think it’s safe too it did not disappoint.

@misterosman and the team at @vikingbooksuk did it again! 

This sequel was filled with the same lovable characters and the same twists and turns, and the same gorgeous writing style as book 1, the book I fell in love with! 

Seriously though, how do these people think of these massive twists?! 

It was actually quite emotional reading the acknowledgements at the end. You can see how much Richard really appreciates the whole publishing team and how grateful he is, it’s lovely to see. Richard and the whole team deserve every single bit of praise for this book.

I would say too that you wouldn’t need to read the first book to read this book, it would help with context about the characters but I don’t think it’s essential. So, if you’re unlike me and don’t mind reading a series out of order, definitely give this book a try! Or, even better, buy both 😜

I can’t put into words how great this series is and how happy it makes me. Even though I know it’s definitely time for me to go to bed, I’m way too excited thinking about book 3! 

It would have been very easy for me to have been disappointed in this book, the first book was amazing and I had very high hopes, but I’m glad to say this never happened! I loved the first book so much I did my first assignment on it for uni 😂

Oh and don’t forget, give @greatjoy69 a wee follow there ♥️
