- asså jo den var bra men tappade lite fokus sedan den första boken
- råkade spoila den plottvisten i mitten…
- förvirrande med typ flashbackarna som kommer lite från ingenstans
- bra och gullig med slutets ”1 år senare” som kändes som att den liksom knöt ihop säcken hahah

Veronica Roth has this way of spinning a story so that it grips you whole, captivating you from the first word to the last. Experienced this with both the Divergent series and now the Carve the mark one. Thankfully, this time I didn't end the series sobbing - yay she spared us *happy dance*
phoenix2's review against another edition
I'm putting this book on hold for a while. The first one was amazing and I couldn't get enough of it. However, this one is a bit disappointing. It's slow, and the pov changing with the first to third person when it comes to the two characters is annoying. So, so far, a slow start. Maybe, when I pick it up again, things will get better later on.

While I did enjoy book 1, I enjoyed book 2 so much more! The pacing just worked better in this one. I absolutely love her use of oracles and abilities. Her use of them is so unique.
I wish that the separation would’ve happened farther into the book, but from what I remember it happens at about the halfway point. The different POVs were much better in this book. The changes seemed more even and we got several other POVs as well.
While I did see the twist coming, I still loved it!
I will say that these books are incredible sad. There are very few happy moments (maybe that’s why I liked the first part of this book so much!), and our characters lead such sad lives. But they live in a difficult world, so it makes sense.

This series just wasn’t really it for me. Hard to get into and stay focused. Enjoyed it while I was reading, took me forever to finish tho
