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.
