I’ve read the first part of this series, This Savage Song not so long ago, and liked it a lot and I’m generally not into dystopian YA. I enjoyed getting to know the characters separately in the beginning, and then witnessing how they met and slowly started to like each other. I was sympathizing more with August, and hoping that Kate won’t figure it out that he’s a Sunai or at least that she takes it well. Now after a bit of a break, meanwhile I read The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee, which is also quite an entertaining book I’m back to Verity and the August&Kate duo. I barely started the book, but so far it mirrors the first one, with our 2 main characters being apart. We see Kate who found her monster-hunting squad in Prosperity and August, who has stayed in Verity, and took over Leo’s place at FTF. The son of a bitch Sloan is also alive and plotting against our heroes with a new monster at his side. We’ll see how it goes forward... I’m quite unsure how all this is going to end.
