the dialogue is horrendous. i’m not usually a harsh critic but the repetitive nature of the characters, the thought processes, and the circling of every thought brought up over and over again was a hard read. first book to dnf. disappointing because i grew to like the characters in the first book so to have them be deduced to “she’s violent” “he doesn’t love me” was hard.

Though, I did get annoyed with Poopy for the first half or annoyed with the repetition. I get she had to write in the tortured decision making, but it went on and on. Otherwise, spiciness level was muy bien. Storyline is progressing. Excited to see where it goes next.

If I have to read the words “she’ll stab me” one more time I’ll rip my hair out. Boring, boring conversations. The entirety of this book is just Poppy, Kieran, and Casteel having the exact same conversation of “she’ll stab me” or “she’s violent” and weird awkward dialogue. It feels like I’m reading a poorly edited wattpad story. The first book gave it so much potential and it’s just went downhill so fast. I regret the money I spent on it when I could have just read a similar book on Ao3 or wattpad that’s just as poorly worded and constructed.

My sister and I adore this series and have incorporated it into our naughty, sci-fi fantasy book club! I highly recommend this book to anyone, as it is a fantastic read! I read this book, cover to cover, in a matter of days, and we eagerly await the third installment of this phenomenally delicious series! 👩🏻‍🤝‍👩🏻🔥💞📚😍☀️🌈🌎🦄✨🌙📘❣️

I can’t put this series down.

I absolutely loved the book!

The biggest problem with this series is that some stuff is very drawn out. Minimal spice as an not frequent and not present in the first book really. It’s a really good story and plot line but it’s long which what’s difficult for me and the main character Poppy doesn’t really seem to get any faster with her thought processes.

This was a great read! I’ll enjoy reading the third book I’m sure!!

Oh my GOD THE ENDING HAD ME SHOOKETHHHHH I CANT WAIT TO READ THE NEXT ONE 😭😭😭😭 these bring me just as much joy as acotar did!!

YES YES YES!! first book was amazing and it just keeps getting better in the second!!! I loved acotar but these books are definitely a step up. I love that there is legit betrayal and the characters aren’t too perfect. I don’t know it just makes it so much more real and not cheesy!!!
