pagesofcierra's review against another edition

The second book in this series I did not love as much as the first one. The reason being, I felt like there were times when there were holes in the story that left me confused, with more questions. One thing that I really loved about this book was the fact we got deeper in the backstory of Isolde and who she really is, and why girl who was the main villain after them. The cliffhanger made me want to read the third book now, but I have to wait until that one comes out. It made me second guess Adrian and everything about him because who is right??

I actually loved this book, I think all the fighting was necessary and contributed to how we see Adrian and Isolde

First off, I love Scarlett’s writing style. It’s an easy flow and very beautiful technique wise. However my gripe with this sequel is that it’s…too much?
Adrian’s character development left me feeling sour.
There is a lot of magic and introduction of new characters and creature - which is super cool - just a little hard to keep track of sometimes.
Isolde’s isn’t that bad, she continues to be a badass woman.
There’s too much going on while reading that I had to re-read some pages just to make sure I understood what was happening.
However that could be a me issue.
I did put the book down for a couple weeks which I did not do with the OG. I am curious what happens next, but in general I think that it was overwhelming at times, potentially abusive between Isolde and Adrian, and I hope more is explained in the next book.
Smut is on point, though, as always.
