We continue our wonderful journey in Weep, starting where we left off at the end of Strange the Dreamer. The storyline in this book moved more consistently than the previous book - I found Strange the Dreamer had a bit of a lull in the middle of the book, whereas this book did not. 
 
It was a bit odd, though, how
we spent the first half of the book thinking Minya was going to be our villain, and then the real villain literally punches a hole through the sky in the last 100 pages
.  Additionally, there were bits and pieces of information that were repeated  almost word for word later in the story. Rather than creatively integrating it and relying on the reader to remember this tidbit of information, it was just regurgitated. 
 
Other than those two minor grievances, I thought the story was beautifully written, the characters were lovable, and I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
