The first book in this series was an unexpected delight, but this one fell a bit flat for me, and I'm not sure why. I might have just not been in the right mood for it. In the first book, I found myself equally engaged in all the POVs, but here I was primarily interested in Astrid's. I'd still be somewhat interested in reading a third book, but I feel like I'd need to reread this one first because I don't know that I fully understood or would remember everything that happened, and I don't know how likely that is.
