adventurous dark fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.75

Higher rating because Famine didn't change. Also responsible sexual behaviour discussions pre-coitus 👍 But God, was that FMC annoying.

Another great book in this series! Can't think of much I didn't like, other than it getting a little sappy at the end which always makes me cringe but that just me so it's still getting a high rating! Other than that, loved the adventure and what the two characters have to witness together. Seeing how both characters change so subtlety throughout the book until you realize just how much at the end is another thing Iove ablut this while series. Also love deaths appearance and I'm so excited for his book!
