There are a few twists and turns in this story, some that you can see building up and others that blindside you. It is emotionally laden without being bogged down and takes you along with Adria onto her journey into madness. Isaac is still coming into his own and is not sure about much apart from Adria but something will happen which makes him take a stand and I feel that he grows so much because of it.
This whole story is quite simply blowing me away and I have already started Book 3 - The Ballad of Aramei.

By Sara Snow
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
When Caroline finds her mortal best friend, Felicity, at Destine Academy, a whole new string of questions unfolds—and Caroline is faced with the extent to which her aunt will go to get her way.As Caroline struggles to heal her body, her heart is torn between her growing feelings for both Corbin of the Surnaturals and Aldrick of the Magicks. But the lingering question is Does she even have a choice?With her aunt pretending the locker room incident was a simple gas leak, Caroline and her friends decide to take matters into their own hands and find a way to protect themselves against Tempeste’s growing powers. But first, they must return Eloise’s memories to her, if they’re to have any hope
And good instalment in the Destine Academy series these books are not long but you get so much info and story packed in you feel like you have read a full length book. We pick back up with Caroline and friends as they find a way to protect themselves from Tempeste. Really enjoyed it.

And I don't mean that pejoratively - I like me a bit of fantasy every now and then!
Anyway, this follows on almost directly from the ending of the previous novel, with Tau Solarin now having risen to the rank of Queen's Campion, still out for revenge against the Royal noble who killed his father, and now wit the added, umm ... shall we say complications? ... that arise from his feelings towards the Omehian Queen Tsiora who is facing a civil war over her actions (including elevating a Common like Tau to be her champion).
For some reason, however, I didn't connect with this one so much as with the previous - I'm not sure whether that was because this seemingly focused more on the grand sweep of the ongoing war than on the personal stakes involved?
Anyway, it also ends with a definite cliff-hanger setup for book #3 - I'll probably continue reading the series when that comes out.
