Stephanie Garber outdid herself with this book, and Rebecca Soler was the perfect narrator as usual!
I never know what to expect from sequels, they can either make the whole story or ruin it, and this one elevated it. Evangeline’s journey was exciting and intriguing and learning more about Jacks was a delight in the most unexpected way. I can honestly say I love this book more than Once Upon a Broken Heart and that’s hard since I had given that one 5 stars. 

PLEASE CHECK TRIGGER WARNINGS BEFORE READING THIS BOOK!

That being said… WOW! I am ANGRY this book isn’t getting royalty treatment from book boxes and book stores!!! Where are the million special editions I need to collect!? Because this book is WORTH IT!

I go into books completely blind and this was no exception, and yet I was grabbed by this book from the beginning! Mute character being done in such an amazing and respectful way!? Count me in! Oh and there’s queer rep!? Even better!!! Murder attempts!? Magic!? Politics? IM SOLD!

By Chapter 2 I was already in love with the characters and being wrecked. By the end of the book I felt my heart put back together and loving everyone even more. Honestly you can see how much I loved this book by how chaotic and badly written this review is! I just can’t express how good it is except telling you to GO READ THIS BOOK NOW!
