I'm pretty sure this series is a duology, so there won't be more in this world. This breaks my heart, because I would happily read at least a dozen more books about these characters and the world they live in, but at the same time I love it because these two books clearly tell exactly the story Davis wanted to tell, and that story really doesn't need anything else. Basically, I just love these books and hope a lot of other people find them, read them, and love them, too.

5.0

This is everything I wanted from a sequel to The Good Luck Girls. It feels like the author read my mind.

This book takes the world created in the first book and expands it, showing the systemic issues underneath and all the groups trying to stop them. The Good Luck Girls was a group of scrappy teens fighting for survival, this is them teaming up with other downtrodden people to change the world. 

I enjoyed the western trappings (the bar brawl was so fun), the new characters were great, and while I did feel the romantic drama in the middle dragged a bit, I like how it ended up. 

If you liked the first one I would definitely recommend this.
