I loved Kiss of the Basilisk and with the way it left off had been SO looking forward to Between Two Kings, but this book has been such a complete departure from the 1st that if you're expecting anything even close to "KOTB 2" you're about to be sorely disappointed. I had to fight to stay with this one because the first 14ish hours felt like listening to a toddler argue ("Why? WHY?? But I don't want to! But why are things done like that here?"🙄) And as much as I hate to say it, I didn't find Tem especially likeable as a FMC in KOTB (but the story and spice carried her)- it's exponentially true for this book. She's the living embodiment of "this could've been an email." The vast majority of her problems exist because she simply refuses to communicate or wants to bury her head in the sand & avoid her problems. She's exhausting. Then the ending of the book was just kind of weird and seemed almost thrown together(I went back and relistened 3 times thinking I must surely have missed something). This is honestly the least enjoyable book I've read in a while, which is a little heartbreaking given how much I was looking forward to it. (Not to mention it was a bit of a downer itself.)

If you like spice, just for spice sake, the book is good. But the main character, is just… awful. She’s just, unlikable in this one. Leo and Apollo deserve better.

Spice is good. Story ok. Main character is intolerable.

This book didn't disappoint but was truly heartbreaking. Still highly recommend although I do hope there is a third installment.

Absolutely amazing!

I was not prepared for the ending and I will never be the same again. This book was sooooo good and it ruined me.

Sobbing

this series makes all other dark romantasy seem tame. I have the worst book hangover now and nothing else is satisfying my interest. wish I could reread for the first time again! Also wish we had more Apollo... I feel like he deserved more!

everything else seems do dull in comparison
