I've been looking forward to this because it's told from Antimony's POV. I've kind of always liked Antimony despite her sour relationship with Verity, and this book goes some ways towards explaining just WHY their relationship is sour. Which I like, because I sympathise with Antimony's situation in my own way.

Additionally, this book brings in a more nuanced portrayal of the Price family and the Covenant. Covenant are still right bastards of course, and nothing's going to change that, but certain individual members might not be beyond redemption - or at least I hope that's the case. I also really liked seeing how the Price family has to...well, pay a price for what Verity did in the last book. “No good deed” and all that. Deffo looking forward to the next book to see how Antimony handles what's happened to her in this one.
