I really loved this book and was very upset once I finished it. The plot was interesting and very easy to connect to, as were the characters. I did not lose interest at all while reading and found myself cheering for the characters (Klara is a total badass).

My one critique is that I wish the world, history, and characters were more established. The novel jumped right into plot and failed to set up the novel in the way I hoped. Although this did not negatively affect the plot, I do believe that the novel would have been enhanced if the author spent more time at the beginning really painting a picture of the world. I hope the sequel explores the history of the worlds more.

Overall, I am very impressed with this novel and the author. I tagged the author in my instagram story, she dmed me and was super sweet. I am happy to continue to support Kate and the Hellish series.

Twitter review:

- very interesting
- easy to connect to
- wish the history/world/characters were more established, it jumped right into the plot (did not affect the book negatively but would have enhanced it)
- I’m sad it’s over

I did receive this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
