MixedI really like the first half of this book I felt like the ending of the previous book set up something new for the series and I like this one going in a fresh Direction I also thought that the central conflict was believable and I was invested in the different perspectives and there was also a great set piece in this book where I felt like the stakes were really high what didn't work for me in this book was a romance subplot which I was never really interested in and this is another book where I felt like it lost a little bit of steam in the second half
