Even though the first book was disturbing and grotesque, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I couldn't wait to get my hand on book two, only to be disappointed. I feel like the author didn't have a clear view or direction for this book. Often times, it felt as though I was reading two completely different stories. I wanted to badly for three two main characters to win, especially after everything they had been through in book one, and she seemed to only torture them more. The book was good in all honesty, but the last 6 to 10 chapters, and the ending was highly disappointing!
