Just amazing! Like what a great read. Ugh, I really loved Mariana and Tristan. I wish the rest of the books followed them as well, but I am excited to read about Dante and Amara. 

Something that irked me was how they talked about "the codes." My husband and I both write code for our jobs (software engineer & data analyst), and I've genuinely never heard of someone talking about a really important computer program as "the codes." It just seemed to downplay the significance of it, but that might just be a me thing. Also, the fact that she really didn't spend that much time writing code felt odd because it just wasn't realistic. You can't just sit for a couple of hours and poof there's a super cool computer program
to take down the highest governments, mafias, etc.
. Not even for a person with a really high IQ. It just felt unreasonable. But otherwise, what a great book!

Also, the ending was really fast. It felt rushed. I could have used a couple more chapters at the end, but again, what a great book.

The slow unfurling of the mysteries and the slow unfurling of the relationships are well done despite some very dark background context.

Not as good as the first one but I still really enjoyed it. I loved seeing their relationship blossom and seeing more of who Tristan is. Loved the found family vibes. The plot progression at the end was also beautifully executed.

This time Morana and Tristan made more sense and they fit together better. Plus everything wasn't so repetitive.

Second book in the dark verse and I loved this book so much. And that ending! Wow. 

A gazillion stars if I could give it that. Now off to binge the next book
