Pallas Poppies
I thought the first one was kind of fun, this one was less fun. I wanted an adventure and this wasn’t that. We are also introduced to Ellies brother and her friend from the first book and they are given POVs and some kind of love story. Apparently this is common in romance stories but the romance isn’t that good and I struggled to tell Constance and Ellie apart, very similar characters. I wasn’t that investing in Neil and Constance and their story was taking over from Ellie and especially Adam, they were basically side characters in this one.
Every woman is some kind of badass rebel and it’s a little much, the theme could be handled a bit better as here I felt hit over the head with it.
Also, what was with the über hot bedouin? It was mentioned every time and it felt a bit awkward.
They are off to India next and not sure I will join them on that “adventure”.
PS. Drink every time the word "foggiest" shows up
