I knew from the moment I started that it was gonna be another masterpiece 

Oh, Jennifer Lynn Barnes, the author you are!

Genuinely baffled by everything that happened in that book. The rythm, the length, THE PLOT TWISTS, everything was utterly perfect. Picking up book 3 immediately

This became one of my favourite books EVER. When you thought you knew what was coming, when you thought you could guess what was coming, you were TACKLED TO THE FLOOR. If someone masters plot twists, it's really Alex Aster. I am still BAFFLED by that end and can't wait for book 3.
