Much faster paced than the first book! Loved that we got to know more about some characters that I really enjoyed from Ninth House. Looking forward to whenever the sequel comes out!

Even though I found this book sort of confusing, I very much enjoyed it. I couldn’t stop reading it. I think the first book set my expectations for how this world/ storytelling is, where things just don’t quite make sense. But that’s okay because Darlington is out of hell! Looking forward to the third book.
