I didn’t love the first book in this series, Caraval, but idk I’m guess I’m determined to read this trilogy first before starting OUABH. I actually enjoyed this one more than Caraval though! It’s told through a different sister’s POV, and I liked that better. I still get annoyed when these characters refuse to discuss things with each other, but I understand that’s necessary for the mysterious plot to progress as it does. Despite some frustration, I keep reading just because I have to know what happens in the end!
