Never a Hero

This book should have been edited down. It was over written and shouldn't have been almost 500 pages. Joan really started to get on my nerves about halfway into the book. I will probably pick up the last book just to find out what happens.

I would like to thank Hodder & Stoughton and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this eARC of this book in exchange for an honest review!

I'm left with no words for this book except that I loved it even more than the first. This was the perfect follow up book: The stakes are higher, the angst intense, the moral questions remain and we learn just enough secrets to keep us wondering and craving the third book.

Vanessa's writing is beautiful and engaging, bringing up to life all these versions of London as if we were there experiencing them.
The story is fast paced and I was gripped from the beginning. The last 20% left me on the edge of my seat, and I hope I won't need to wait more than a year for the sequel. My heart seriously cannot take it.

This book reminds me a bit of the Netflix series Dark. If you enjoyed the show, give this series a try.
