I started this series last year and I'm so glad I finally got around to the second book. These books are always super quick, fun reads (thanks Charlene!). The story in this one was super dark (definitely check the trigger warnings here) and I was hooked from the start trying to figure out what was going on.

This book counts for Popsugar 2021 as a bestseller from the 1990s and is a Top 12 book for 2021.
