This one still had me hooked, but I could definitely feel it losing a little of the momentum from the first book. The stakes are still high, and there’s a lot going on, but it didn’t feel quite as tight or addictive as Fourth Wing for me.
I still really liked Violet’s growth. She continues to feel strong in a realistic way, and I appreciated how she keeps being pushed without suddenly having everything figured out. The relationships are still a big draw too, especially with all the tension, but some of it felt more drawn out this time instead of building in a way that felt fresh.
The world expands more here, which is interesting, but it also makes things feel a bit heavier and slower in parts. There were moments where I felt fully pulled in again, and others where it dragged more than I expected.
Overall, it’s still a really solid continuation, just not quite as gripping as the first. It kept me invested, I just didn’t fly through it the same way.
