Something about this story just has me at meh. I think I need to take a break from marathoning audios. I definitely feel tired. I will reread this book at some point because it's definitely good, right now I am not in the mood for it and it reflects in the 3 stars. I wanted to enjoy this more than book one, but it's about the same for me.
