The sequel was pretty nice. Voya does have to pay for actions from the first book and yet at the same time trying her best to lead the family. Also she’s still a kid and the family (the adults) were not much help for much of the book. That’s a lot to ask of a kid when everything is happening at once. It’s okay to ask for help.
It was nice once again to get the food and culture side of things. Helped break up some of the heavy stuff and how voya was feeling. On the other hand this still may be a family of witches but it’s good to see that magic can’t fix everything. Bonds between family members are still being tested. Eating disorder and possible drug use.
The whole “getting your lick back” for Justin was messed up. Justin did some not so nice things in the first book and has to pay. However, i understand somewhat because his sponsor kids are being loyal. Oh yea johan, smh. You sir are trifling.
Lastly, i see you Luc.
