An excellent extension of the first book. It continues the story immediately after the first book finished and keeps up the characters and the pace quite nicely with no drop off in quality that is so frequently seen in 2nd books. I expect them to completely quite a few in this series and hope the quality keeps to this consistent level.

This sequel to I am Number Four is awesome! I love that we still get to follow Four and the others are they journey to found the other. and I like that it follows Number seven in Spain as well. i also like that they found another numbers as well. Number Nine and Ten.

This is going to be a short review, since I don't have a lot of time, so here are just my quick thoughts on the book.
- The plot and worldbuilding (i.e. all of the alien lore and stuff) were really interesting.
- Characters were meh. I mean, they were okay, but I'm not going to be including them on a list of my top ten favorite characters anytime soon. I liked Sam the most (always have, really).
- Speaking of Sam,
Spoiler I was actually surprised to hear that his dad had been the one who helped Henri and Four. I didn't see that one coming. Also, if Sam isn't in the next book, I'm going to be mad.

- The love triangle was stupid, forced, and completely unnecessary. I hated it.
- I might read the next book, I might not. I mean, I like the plot and everything, but it takes me so long to get through these...
- Random thought: I bet these would read a lot better as a graphic novel/manga series.

That's all I have to say for now!

Oh yeah, one more note.
SpoilerP.S. Also, for the 2.5 seconds we got to see Nine in action, I thought he was pretty cool. Hopefully, he's in the next book if I ever actually read it

Three stars because I love the story... I just hate the writing. Most of the time, anyway. It's like reading a movie. Sometimes I just want some DEPTH. I'll finish the series, though, definitely.

I really liked this one, probably even more than the first. It kept me riveted all the way through and I finished it in one day. The plot is good and the action exciting.
