WOW this blew my mind! It’s the second book and it’s so short that I literally can’t say anything without risking spoilers. Jac & Jill were mesmerizing in the first book so I’m so glad that’s the story we followed here. Absolutely captivating, give me more.

As an identical twin, there are several passages, especially in the first quarter, that made me nearly cry with a sense of recognition.

Jack and Jill were not my favorite characters in Every Heart a Doorway, but I prefer this installment of the series over the first one. I think largely has to do with the fact that there was less to cover in terms of world building this time/few characters to keep track of. 

I enjoyed the tragedy that this was from the start, and how I was left hoping for a better outcome as I got attached to certain characters. A lot of people failed Jack and Jill along the way and they didn't have much control. That being said Jack still chose Jill at a detriment to herself. This only solidify my dislike for Jill as a person, though the book does a good job at explain that she, too, is a victim of her circumstances. The choices she was able to make were terrible, and she never thought of herself as being at fault.

I also disliked that 
Alexis was killed: a total bury your gays moment.
