Well I appreciate that Lena and Ethan are finally back together but idk, I’m kind of over the plot and the villains 😂 curious to see what will come of Link, Ridley, and Macon. But like Sarafine, Abraham, Hunting, I just don’t care! Enjoyed this one a little less than the first book and I did raise my rating of the first to 4 stars and I think I’ll give this one 3.5….. and onto the next…. In a few books!

“She gets with dead people? That’s the kind of thing a person should keep to themselves.” No literally though 😂 I’m definitely not enjoying this book as much as I wanted to. I miss Lena! I don’t enjoy this they can’t be together thing and Ethan going back and forth whether he is meant to be with someone like Liv. And once again, it just feels like the pacing is off. I feel like so little is happening.

Didn’t know the book would spend so much time with Lena and Ethan apart this book 🥲 tbh, I mean I get what they’re going for that Ethan will never be able to relate to Lena as a caster, but I feel like Macon passing should have driven the pair closer together?? And now they both have a thing going on with separate people and I hate it! Especially John! Fuck that guy! Liv is fine though, she seems sweet enough
