The Bitter Twins by Jen Williams

5.0

4.8/5⭐️
HOLY SMOKES THIS BOOK WAS EVERYTHING

I was a little worried going into this thinking that the author may get a case of “second book syndrome” as the first half of the book was very slow.
That is why this is a 4.8/5 and not a full on 5. However, it does not take away anything. This book was **chefs kiss**

The slow build up set the stage for an absolutely incredible last half. Filled with so much tension. There is betrayal, love, war, inner-conflict, end-of-the-world sense of impending doom and even MORE fantastical creatures. This book was beyond magical.
I thought the first book had its fair share fascinating creatures but now, I am even more impressed by Williams’ imagination and world building. So much lore, so much sorrow and heartbreak in one book. She just keeps hitting me right in the feels.
Ofc my favourite trio are also back together also, so that makes my black little heart very happy.
This book is someways much much more and better than the first. I’m really looking forward to the series finale ❤️
