I had such a great time with this book. I continue to be so impressed with how Lily Mayne creates these very tender romances set against a dark/gritty dystopian backdrop.

I love Edin- my sweet, kind, adorable giant teddy bear. I really liked Hunter too- his black cat energy really resonated with me. Despite enjoying both of these characters, I feel like there was something missing from their chemistry. I can't quite pinpoint it but I didn't have the same emotional gut-punch reaction that I did with Wyn/Danny. Maybe it's that I wanted more time for them to be together? Maybe it was the pacing of the plot that threw it off for me? 

I know I'm supposed to read this series in order but I am DESPERATE to get to Charlie's book.
