The plot was meandering and it seemed like such a filler book.

Content: language, I skipped a chapter

Hoping that the next book will be better ( )

Extremely boring sequel to a go decent 'cheese puff' of a book. I finished it. That's really all there is to say. I hope the 3rd is more satisfactory than this. ( )

3/5 stars

I like the story. I really do. My only problem with this book is the frequent use of complicated words. I have to pause like every page or two (especially at the early chapters) and consult the dictionary. It's driving me insane. Don't get me wrong. I like learning new words. But this is too much for me. English is not my first language and the frequent use of complicated words made my reading of this book less enjoyable.

I hope the next book won't make me feel like this. ( )

Reading this book made me reconsider my rating for the first book. After finishing this book, I've decided to rate them both 4 stars. Both started out rather slow, but they have both kept me on the edge of my seat. They both have characters that I love and am invested in. This book started out slow just like the first one, and it had a couple more parts within the book that were more boring but I still loved it. This book and the first have caused me to feel so many different emotions. What hit me the hardest in this book was the death of Ansel. He was one of my favorite characters, and even though I sometimes applaud an author for killing off their characters, this death was really hard on me. Regardless, I am excited to see where the third book takes the remaining cast of characters. ( )
