What an amazing sequel to an already amazing beginning. I loved every part of this story, the mystery, the love story, the pining, the ins and outs. It was such a fun story and i absolutely can not wait until the third and final book drops in a couple of weeks.

Absolutely no words. One of the best series I have read in a very long time. 
I am constantly trying to guess what will happen -sometimes I'm right, sometimes it's impossible to predict. 

I have so many theories. Can't wait for #3!

Equally as thrilling and interesting as book one. Can’t wait for the next one.

There were parts when the mystery got a bit convoluted and the very end felt a bit rushed.
