I was happy to rejoin Greta and Isaac in Greta and the Glass Kingdom. I actually read the first and second book in a row, so I was completely absorbed into the world. It’s a very addicting read.

I have to say there were definitely parts of this book that kept stressing me out. Wyatt was not actually one of the things but he was managing to annoy me anyway. I liked how the plot was more of an adventure for this one. We have a lot more going on getting from point a to point b. As they take the sometimes treacherous journey from the Goblin palace to the Glass Kingdom.It helps keep the action moving and allows me to focus on something else instead of the things stressing me out.

We also get to know a little more about the fairies that keep themselves locked away. About who they are and what they can do. Also what Siona’s connection with them is.

Of course I love Greta and Isaac and how sweet their love is. Especially because they have a whole world against them. I like how they can make one another gentle because they are both very fierce.

I think Greta has really changed in this book from the first. She is more accepting of her role and her life in Mylena. Especially since she is finally open with her feelings about Isaac. It really brings her character to a new a level because she is not so closed off and cold. She is more trusting which can be good and bad. Or maybe it’s more that she is now willing to take the chance that someone might be trustworthy or not.

I continued to be completely absorbed in Mylena and the story. I can not wait for the next book so I can find out what happens!
