Not bad, better than the first in certain ways. I wish the characters (old and new) were a bit more fleshed out. I wanted to know more about them as people outside of the story. I was also hoping for more character development. I’ll definitely be reading the 3rd when it comes out in hopes of more development but I’m not betting on it.

I didn’t see the ending coming though, which was nice (crazy) surprise.

Going into this I was slightly less hopeful after the first book. I thought McManus’ writing was adequate but nothing spectacular. This book felt slightly more interesting to me than the first but I was slightly disappointed in how easily I was able to guess the plot twists. Overall a decent book.

3.5/5
I really enjoyed the second installment of the “One Of Us” series. It was full of some interesting twists and overall very enjoyable. I really liked the ending, as there was a part I was not expecting. However, I did feel like there were a few plot points that were entirely too predictable, and the writing at times felt very juvenile (even for YA). Overall, a pretty good and lighthearted read!

it didn't hate it. at first I didn't enjoy it and wanted to put it down but with some friendly peer pressure from my friends I picked it back up and pushed through. the beginning was slow and there wasn't a defined thing the characters needed to figure out making me just hate on annoying side characters that had egos bigger than bayview. but one I got past that and started to read more I feel head over heels for most characters. Maeve and Luis, Knox, phoebe from time to time, and even the very rarely brought up Mr.Santos.
