My main issue with this book was the same one I had with the first one there was so little world building, two entire books later and we know almost nothing about what happened after the nuclear war and how the world worked after 50 years of the war. Over all, the writing and the pacing worked very well with the story, this book had a lot more action that the previous one, and there was an interesting twist towards the end of the book that I wasn’t expecting at all. On the other hand, the writing was good, and even if the pace in the first part was a bit slow, later on it picked up. I guess I didn’t mind the romance in The Book of Ivy, so that was why I felt like it didn’t make any difference, but if any of you is thinking about not reading the second book because the romance, just know that the second book has a little less of it. One thing about The Revolution of Ivy that I would like to say is that it was not as romance heavy as the first one, and that didn’t make it better or worse. Also, the character development of the protagonist of the previous book was well-done, it was very entertaining to watch it happen. I felt like the new characters added interesting dynamics to the book, which I enjoyed a lot, and I found myself appreciating the relationships between all the different characters. Nonetheless, after that initial part, I found this book to be a quick and enjoyable read.
