I didn’t like the action in this book nearly as much as the first one, and a lot of the dialogue felt very corny. However, Wren and Lei’s relationship is a huge highlight in this book and it was very well written. I’m now done rereading the books I’ve read already and am excited to read the third, which I have not read. This suffers slightly from “second book filler” and felt like a lot of nothing action, as opposed to the first book which felt like it was paced better. But I have to stress how much I love Wren and Lei’s relationship despite these issues. They’re very well written. I didn’t care much for the other side characters introduced in this book.
