🔥Genre: Fantasy 
🔥Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️

🔥Thoughts: I really enjoyed this book. I did have the ending spoiled for me on TikTok, unfortunately. The ending was still a shock though! I have heard people talking about how this book felt too long and slow for them, but I didn’t feel that way at all! I ate it all up! 
🔥10 Point Break Down: 9.5 
🔥Plot: +1 Even for being a second book in a series, there is a ton that happens and I was hooked the entire time. 
🔥Characters: +1 I loved how Rebecca Yaros is slowly revealing more and more about the characters to us. I am a character reader through and through, so this makes me very happy! 
🔥Setting: +1 I always feel so immersed in this world! Also, even with all of the different locations, I didn’t feel confused at any part of the book! 
🔥Writing Style: +1 I really enjoy Rebecca Yaros’ writing. 
🔥Pacing: +0.5 This is only getting docked because part 1 was a little slow. There were a couple of parts that were hard to get into but overall really good! 
🔥Themes: +1 Explores themes of forgiveness, communication, and prejudice. 
🔥Originality: +1 Super interesting idea. 
🔥Emotional Impact: +1 This book made me laugh and cry and scream, all in the span on a page. 
🔥Overall Enjoyment: +1 I seriously love love love all of the characters and I am so invested in their journeys. 
🔥Ending: +1 The ending was so good (even though I got it spoiled for me!😭) I am distraught and I can’t wait for Onyx Storm to be released!
