It was enjoyable, but didn't hit as hard as the first book. By the end the 
I loved Wren, and her arc in the first book. Her character was what I wanted of Nesta in ACOTAR. She was a bit feral and affected by trauma, but still was loyal and craved love, while rejecting it because she didn't believe she deserved it. I loved the alegory or her using her power hurting her. I loved the ending for her. It all felt a bit predictable and formulaic and by the end I was ready for it to wrap up but overall really enjoyed it!
