*sigh* I've just finished exhausting the internet to see if there is anyway I can buy the freaking audiobook of the next book and download it-- but no. Audible says it's not freakin' available in this country despite it being the place where the book is freakin set. 
 Looks like I'll have to wait for the snail mail to send me that book. Who's idea was it to not have this series on kindle?! 
 Anyway. Back to breathing. This book was, character wise, far superior to the last one. I felt that this time they weren't all stereotypes and even when they were they were still interesting. The characters were diverse and many of them extremely likeable. For me this was definitely the highlight of the book. Even dear Gwyn was likable this time. I don't know what was up with her in the first half of the last book where she had like twelve year old syndrome. Okay, I made that up. Twelve year old syndrome is not a thing, but it should be 'cos she had it. Thankfully it looks like that is in the past (view spoiler)[although that heart break crap she was spouting seemed like a huge regression, but then again I'm a heartless bitch and can't tolerate that pansy stuff (hide spoiler)]. 
 The biggest downside of this book was that it got very timey wimey wibbley wobbley stuff on me. I felt like some of it was over complicated and that I really would've understood it if it hadn't been explained in a way that was meant to confuse. This is always going to be a problem for me with time travel related stuff but a few times I definitely felt overwhelmed. 
 Random spoiler comment (view spoiler)[I really would like to see a freaking copy of that timeline that Paul gave away. I would like to clarify how much incest is really going down between Gideon and Gwyneth (hide spoiler)]
