This book carries on a year after the first one. I like that it goes into detail about things that happened in the first book but just to recap and also goes into details about the characters. About 18% the way through I thought what are you doing Quinn you are an idiot! I was yelling at the book. But things resolved themselves so I was happy again. There is a lot more action going on. Not only are the Spook Crew trying to do their jobs as Keepers, they are having to fight against evils that are coming for them. The reason for the 4 star is I am a little confused with what happens with Eloise. I don’t want to go into detail because of spoilers but it leaves me with the question: how is that possible, how will it work?I also have a lot of questions about couples in the books which I hope changes and becomes clearer in the next book. I was not expecting the ending though and I am itching to read the next in the series to find out what happens. It all kicked off in this one well it's going to heat up even more in the next one.
