SPOILERS!!!

Well….I’ve been duped into a trilogy. 

The cliffhanger ending is very good, but oh my lord what did I just read? I swear Erin Craig loves making these stories dark and creepy towards the end. 

At first, I was very skeptical of this book. I didn’t know if it would live up to my love of the first one. The mystery, creep factor, and secrets were all great. Craig is very good at characterization. There were some parts of the story- secrecy siblings and the romance between Verity and Alex- that I wanted to be explored more. Especially the romance between Verity and Alex. I liked the beginning of it and how it showed Verity being unfamiliar with these feelings, but I feel like we rushed from dating to marriage too fast and Verity was just kinda okay with it. I think I would have liked the bridge between like and love to be a bit smoother. 

Other than that…the ending. Holy crap. They’re alive. Like shizzz. Well done.
