Court of Claws

This book continues Morgan's story letting us learn more about who she is and the world we're diving in. I really enjoyed the exploration of Draven's court and the subterranean places. However, the focus on the Arthurian legend is a bit lost and there's a bigger focus on the romance.    The slow burn develops, and we have some forced proximity among political intrigues which I enjoyed so much. We also see a lot more of the world building in this book and for me that was a plus.    I'm so excited to discover where this story is going since it has a hunger games vibe while we explore the Siabra court. The scenery and the events of this book is different from the first one and while I would rather explore a bit more of the Arthurian legend I'm still curious to see where it will develop in the next book.    Thank you, NetGalley & the publisher, for approving me to read this arc and write this review.

I think I enjoyed this more than the first? The action (and spice!) definitely picked up in this one and I liked the new characters that were added. (Well, most of them.. for obvious reasons lol.) Though I do think I need to stop starting series that aren't finished yet because after that epilogue I would like to read the next one now lol.

I received this book for free (ARC) from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I loved the first book so dove immediately into the second. The second was... good, not great. Twists and turns as usual and I read 70% of it in one night. I had issues with the beginning and middle specifically the MCs motivations. I felt there was a lot left out at the beginning that we would have liked to see. I feel that the author tries to create a world that is realistic in its reactions to situations but the MC start the start felt very two dimensional to me in the first third of the book. The beginning plot was cliche imo. Things only occurred to make MC stay in that situation and the MC didn't explore their feelings or the situation enough. I felt that MC lost that fire and drive that they had in the first book. I understood the rage they felt but I felt it was only there to create conflict on a superficial level. I did like the book but I don't think I'd re-read all of it. If I was reading the series over again I'd skip to the last 1/3 or 1/4 of this book. The spicy scenes were really good though!
