I really enjoyed this! Not as much as the first, but it was still really good. I just really like the characters she writes and I love that we got to see the characters from the first in this. Also how the events of the first book effects this one. Now it didn’t get interesting plot wise for the first like 50%(I don’t really care because I like the characters and relationships). The last part of this book I did not see coming my jaw dropped.

I absolutely tore through this book, and as much as I loved the main characters, I didn't like the mystery, or, to be fair, several mysteries that happened to be connected.

There was the Truth or Dare game,

the Intense Guy, the threats for Eli, and then the personal problems (Knox's family life and love life, Maeve's leukemia possibly returning, Phoebe's dad's death).

When you add in the other people at school, the cameos of the Bayside Four, and all the other side characters, it was quite overwhelming. 

I feel like the answer to the mysteries was a bit convoluted and trite. The fact that the ending was a bit vague and cut off makes it even worse; there are no answers about what happens next, what happens to their lives, which for me was a big plus in the first book.

Overall, worth reading for the amazing characters and world, but not for the actual mystery.
