Behind spoiler reactions to ending!!
UMMM I AM NOT OK WITH THIIS ENDING KITT IS JUST LIKE HIS FATHER BUT 100 TIMES WORSE  I recommend having something to scream into or punch (maybe a little bit of both) when you get to this ending. JUST KNOW I GAVE YOU A WARNING!!!!  WILL I EVER RECOVER FROM THIS??? I GUEESS I AHVE TO WAIT UNTI,.L APRIL OF 2025 TO FIND OUT.
Other then the ending I enjoyed this book and set a new personal record for finishing a book: 2 days. I do feel like the writing was lacking in some spots (compared to powerless) however there is MANY instances where Lauren's writing is just incredible. Spoiler for how plot develops
I do understand the complains of more of a build up to Kai and Payton meeting and while I semi agree with this I did enjoy the struggles of getting back to the kingdom.
Overall, I would say if you enjoyed powerless this would be a great next read. Before this book came out I was in a reading slump after finishing powerless, this might be my last review until April....
