It was a darker sequel to the first book. I liked the plot and the ending was really good. The book was also more heart-wrenching than the earlier one. Highly recommended!

Love this book maybe even more then the first one. I listened it on Spotify but now I'm through my listening hours so I have to wait till next month to listen to the next book!! Love this series so much! Not my usual genre (that's why I listen to the audiobooks) but love it soooo much!

This is one of the best book series I’ve ever read! This one wasn’t as good as the first one but extremely close behind. Age 14+
