I wanted to love this but it really dragged for me. I wanted to feel swept up in the magic like I was for the first book, but I was left with too many questions. I loved moments. I will definitely continue to see how it ends. But this truly felt like a book that was setting up things for the last book and that was frustrating for me. 
Love Jax and Nora and Cinna 
Callyn’s parts were truly exciting. 
Grey and Tycho AND Lia Mara were annoying to me.
