The one thing I did remember - irritation with Bones. OMG these two struggled to communicate in this book! And felt particularly annoyed with Bones because (1) I felt like he disregarded everything he knew about Cat and expected her to be other than who he knew she was; and (2) he really didn't use his years of experience to create any wisdom for handling a very difficult situation. That said, I think it's realistic for a relationship to have challenges and it makes them more believable to have some internal conflict.
Other than that - it was all surprises for me! So much happened that it's hard to believe I forgot - so much that I can't tell you because it would be a spoiler - but lots of things that evoke strong emotions. I can say I felt sadness, anger, frustration, love, and so much more. There's a lot of action in this book, it's very gripping and I found myself not wanting to put it down. One of my favorite tidbits was Vlad - what a fantastic character! I love the friendship that he and Cat have developed and I'm so excited to eventually read his books.
I'm curious to see where things will go next because (1) I don't remember and (2) I've never read the spin off books. Looking forward to continuing later this month!
