I finally finished this book. I found it quite boring, all over the place. Everyone says this series are amazing and I fail to see the appeal. I like it, but I don't love it.
The book is told from everybody and their mama's perspective. We have Karou, her friends, Akiva and his siblings, that Sveva chick (view spoiler).

So impressed with the second book - I liked it even better than the first.
