I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BOOK. I would definitely recommend this. Pip deserves the world. Max Hasting pissed me off. Ravi is just ❤️. Cara slayed. Jamie was kinda meh. I felt that he was a bit naive and he really really needs to get his life straightened out. I disliked him a lot and I feel so bad for his parents. Nat was portrayed wonderfully

It was a typical sequel where the first one was better than this one but it’s still kept me on the edge of my seat. I did have to suspend reality for some of the pieces but I still really enjoyed the story. Some of it I could figure out but most of it was a surprise. I highly recommend reading it if you enjoyed the first one.

Great sequel to one of the best reads ever. The books give a cinematic experience towards the ending of the book which felt different from the first one.
