I have lots of spoilery things that I want to say about this
book, but I won't. Yet. Why? Because this book doesn't come out until
May, and I don't want to ruin anything for anyone in advance of its
release date. So consider this part 1 of my review... If you want to see
part 2 with spoilers, please come back 1 week after its release date
for a spoiler inundated update review.
Hold on, BRB, gotta go sob in the corner for a few minutes.
Listen, when I tell you that I SCREECHED like a velociraptor when I saw that I was approved for an ARC of this book, I am NOT exaggerating. Why? Because, my friend, the last book left off in some VERY kind of stressful way. and I was ANXIOUS to see how things were going to play out.
I still cared more about Wren's POV and goings on than I did Rose's, at least until closer to the end. But at the same time, I liked Rose's character better than I did Wren... Which is very confusing. Wren had a lot of emotional trauma that she was dealing with, and she didn't always make the right choices. (I mean, Rose did the same thing, but you know...) I liked seeing how Rose and Wren balanced each other out. This still had hints of that Fantasy RomCom that attracted me to the first book, but this one had a lot more serious undertones.
We learn a lot more about SO MANY of the characters too. And I can't wait for you all to read about it! And know the same things that I do now...
Thank you so so much to Harper Collins, Catherine Doyle, Katherine Webber, and Netgalley for allowing me to read an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
