Same interesting setting as the first, but I didn't connect with this one as much. There's a lot of library-meta again, but for me it fell flat.

If you love books, and wonder, sometimes, if books are made of more than just paper and glue, this series is for you.

Absolutely riveting.

I enjoyed the first book in this series and was looking forward to the second book. This book turned out to be the best of the series so far. The personal growth of all the main characters was painful, sad and ultimately profoundly beautiful. My eyes watered on many occasions.  The evolving relationship between Hero and Rami were some of my favorite parts of the book.  Despite my dislike for the assistant librarian, I understood (but disagreed) with her point of view. Once of my favorite books of the year so far. A part of me wishes that this was the last book in the series. I am a bit nervous that the next book will be unable to be as good as this one was. I have placed an order for the final book in this trilogy.  I hope that the author will provide a satisfying ending to this trilogy.
