I have been waiting for this second book since reading A Dawn of Onyx. I really enjoyed the characters and the battle between good and evil. Plus, who doesn't love a tall handsome fae who wields shadows?
I was excited to pick back up in book two. I really enjoyed A Promise of Peridot overall.
All of the side characters have my heart. I found the will-they-won't-they of the two main characters kind of meh.
I also thought there was maybe too much in the book? Every time we were taken to a brand new part of the world, the characters quickly left. I would have like to sit in a few of those adventures a little longer.
I did NOT like the plot twist at the end mostly because I don't like the trope it's headed toward. I really hope this doesn't play out in book three. Gross.
Stars: 3/5
Busy Girl Rating: 4/5
