Just like the first book, I loved this one. Despite the fact that there are more battles and even all-out war, I felt it was slower paced than the first but in a good way. This one put more emphasis on what the characters deal with in the present. The characters are the same, but because of this one being less about how their relationship started, they feel new to me. It was interesting to see how they develop.
The author did a great job as well with the horror elements that were in this one, and there was again more in this book than the first. I had some genuinely emotional moments while reading.

This was such a trip of a story. It flows from a sarcastic adventure to genuinely emotional moments of feelings no one actually wants to have and back again. I had so much fun reading this book, trying to figure out bits of mystery, enjoying little bits of combat and necromancy, and then actually getting way too emotional for the last half of the book.
I really loved the way the author lets all the emotional punches out little bits at a time. We really get the opportunity to reevaluate our opinions on nearly every character and it's fantastic. The pacing was just right for this too. I never felt like anything dragged out or changed too suddenly.

I admit I got exactly what I expected from this book. It very much falls into what I expect from Melissa Brayden. Her characters are always witty and quirky with one defining element that sets them apart from the rest of the social circle. This book was good and cute. I really liked Gabriella a lot as a character and to be honest, I really wish we got to see more of her. I feel like there were a few traits about her that came up but were ultimately not explored enough. I wasn't a big fan of her love interest though. I felt her character was not well defined. She was presented as one thing and was very quickly another without much to make me feel for her from the beginning.
Overall it was an interesting story though it ranks a little lower than some of the author's other books.

So far I'm really enjoying this series! The story is intriguing and I'm liking how the details are coming in one at a time to keep me hooked. Morgan Knox is a really interesting character and I really look forward to continuing! The narration is fun and I like the classic radio drama feel.
