Following the conclusion of Waterfell, this book takes place a few months after Nerissa left Lo on land while she went back to Waterfell to try to settle the courts (or something).

This book was slightly less predictable than the previous, and slightly more enjoyable. It was easier to connect to the characters emotions/feelings.

There are more hybrids to be taken care of, and the fact that both Nerissa’s mother and the crazy scientist (once) principal is still on the loose. Now, there is more going on in the courts within Waterfell AND Lo has gotten ill.

The book did end on a plot twist of a cliffhanger, and there does not seem to be any word of another book to follow through.

Overall, the second book is better than the first, but I would still consider it a 3/5 star rating - which is still the middle ground.

This is partially on me, but I had no idea this was the second book in a series. Unfortunately, that meant I had no idea what was going on for a significant portion of the book and couldn't really enjoy it. I still could tell it was a fun book, but the lack of context kept me from actually enjoying it.

I went into this book not knowing much, that's how I really like to read books here recently. This one sadly didn't hold up to what the summary was saying. I wanted to love it but sadly it wasn't that home run for me.

The first book didn't do anything for me, and now that I know this book ends on a cliffhanger and is part of an incomplete series I don't have any interest in reading it. I do appreciate the opportunity, though, and I promoted the title on social media.
