Days of Blood & Starlight

I definitely didn't like this one as much as the first book. It was hard to get into this for the first 200-ish pages, but after that I found myself to be enjoying it. The story was hard to follow but I understood the general gist of it.

Karou was less likable to read about this time around. Her character had changed too much since she found out she was Madrigal that I no longer really liked her. The highlights of this book were Zuzana and Mik. Their POV chapters and chapters they were featured in were the most enjoyable for me.

Like Karou, I really did not like Akiva this time. I loved his character in the first book but now his character didn't quite grip me like last time. Liraz grew on me, and I'm really upset Hazael died. I barely knew him as a character but I felt he could've been developed into a good Cassian or Kenji-like character.

I loved that Issa was resurrected. I loved her character and still do. I still don't trust Ten. Ziri was just... eh.

And we don't talk about Thiago here. This is an anti-Thiago zone.

Uhhhh so yeah. :)
