Phenomenal. For some reason I didn't "love" the first book. I think I was initially overwhelmed by all the characters and the plot lines but I loved the end. This sequel carries on directly from the ending of the first one and that is why I loved it so much! I knew the characters already and really enjoyed seeing what was next in their story. The book highlights racial inequalities so well with even subtle details/events that happen. The characters' experiences are betrayed so realistically and I am sad we don't have a part 3!
