This was so much fun to read!! I thought this was better than the first book of the series. I love Evie and Trystan, and I am rooting for them to be together. 

There were a lot of things that happened in this book, it felt a lot faster than the first book. I don’t fully understand the leap with some of the tasks they figure out that they need to do in order to find answers (which is all the stuff they’re doing for like the entire book) but I am not here for deep lore. I am here for an adventure of defeating the bad guy while the 2 main characters fall in love with each other. I think the action and adventure in this book was better than the previous one. I also loved that
Evie and Trystan finally showed each other something about being in love with each other, albeit extremely limited and short lived :/. I hope there is more between them in the next book, since this is supposedly a trilogy and it would definitely bother me extremely if we got such a lack of romance besides the incessant pining for each other.


This was a joy to read, and I definitely recommend it!!
