This book was interesting, as we saw an expansion of the world and it did have some political intrigue that I appreciated, but the ending was so rushed and anti-climactic that it brought down the whole book for me.

I also found Luna to be very frustrating in this book. I can’t even pinpoint exactly why.

I also felt like Luna’s ability to trick people from figuring out that she is blind wasn’t entirely realistic. In the first book they do run into people along the way, but it’s never for long and some of them do figure it out. In this story she’s surrounded by a castle full of people, including a bunch of servants, and they never once suspect that she can’t see?

The extra love interests were pointless as well, although I thought Chasen was interesting and wouldn’t have minded seeing more of that character.

I really liked the first book because it gave me strong Rapunzel vibes. Unfortunately, this book strayed far away from that and it just felt very rushed and messy to me.
