This would easily be 4+ stars if half of the book wasn't just incessant bickering and relationship issues. I love the world, the characters, the dragons, the twists and turns ... but if Xaden and Violet don't get their shit together soon, I don't know if I want to continue reading.

This book was so long. Why wasn't it split into two? At one point I kept checking the audiobook too see how much time was left. It really felt like it was dragging on some how ,despite listening to it at a faster speed. The ending picked up, but that's just because of the in the moment action and drama during war/the frontlines.

Still tons of questions, as mentioned in my review of the first book. And.... these questions continue, thoughts notes below.
  •  Cat? (that's it. that's the question) Poorly written character that didn't start to have substance, besides "Mean girl", until later in the book and then for someone who was so 'pivotal' she just.... vanished in the late second half of the book.
  • Violet somehow gets more childish in this book? How did we stall out with her character growth in such a long second installment?
  • The fighting between her and Xayden draaaaaged on. It became very wash, rinse, repeat. I grew weary of it.
  • There are now so many side characters that I'm getting them confused...

The plot twists were (slightly) less visible in this book than the first, there was one notable thing that caught me by surprise.

  I pegged as being a twist but not HOW the twist was spun, so that was actually pretty great.

Overall this book was.... dramatic. Tense, emotional and full of various kinds of drama, but with very little character growth compared to what we saw in the first book.
