Mostly it was because of her feelings towards Jacks.

While I loved Evangeline's naivety in this first book, this one was a little hard. I just can't even because again, this cannot be the last book. Her previous books were very descriptive and so many similes used - if you liked that, then you might not enjoy this book as much. The use of descriptions were more minimal which helped me in my opinion. I really enjoyed the writing a lot more in this one. It's really hard to talk about a lot of the events because of so many spoilers and this is a book you do not want spoiled for yourself. Everything moved so fast for me, and I really was swept up in this magical world. This just built upon an already interesting world to provide even more unique stories. I loved learning about the Great Houses and the Ballad of the Archer and the Fox. While the first book gave us the story of the Valory Arches and the North - this one gave us so much more. This review is under the assumption that a third book is coming - if it is not, then this might really change.įirst, what an adventure.
