I also can’t deny this book really made me emotional a couple of times, if slightly annoyed at the same time (you’ll know which scene I mean if you’ve read it!), so the author must have been doing something right. I really thought they made a great ‘found family’ and enjoyed reading about them a lot. The best part about this book for me was the friendship of Stella, Jamie and Mara. It really got on my nerves after a while, honestly. It was almost as if the author latched onto an idea only to discard it a couple of pages later and mess up the plot completely. I can’t even begin to describe how much this seemed to jump around. It felt structured and I was really enjoying the plot alongside the creepy vibes. I was still feeling good for the first half of this one too, we seemed to be following a good, linear narrative leading us in the right direction. I had mixed feelings about the series so far, but I enjoyed the second book a lot more than the first. She never gave much thought before to how far she would go for vengeance, but with loyalties betrayed, guilt and innocence tangle, and when fate and chance collide it seems the time for retribution has arrived. She desperately wants to believe that there’s more to the lies she’s been told and doesn’t stop to think about where her quest for the truth might lead. Mara Dyer had no idea that it would end like this.
