I was so excited to get back to the Nightingale, as I absolutely adored my first trip there. This trip was enjoyable, but not to the same level. 

The difference this time is mainly how I didn’t feel as in depth into the story as I did in book one. I felt like I was there and part of it whereas this time it felt like I was an outsider looking in. While this is still an enjoyable way to read a book, I definitely didn’t get sucked in like I had expected to - and maybe that’s why as well, I expected it. 

I try not to go into books with expectations but I definitely did this time. I still enjoy it and still recommend. 

3.5⭐️ thanks NetGalley for the audiobook!
