Ok. I thought I hated the first half and then I read the last half. The first half was her feeling sorry for herself while her friends all told her that she was awesome. The second half was the unresolved “resolution”. I had to go back and check that I didn’t miss anything. It felt like I had skimmed the ending…but no. The author is the one who skimmed the freaking ending!

To add insult to injury, Maddie never returned Aiden’s “I love you” even after they turned out to be soulmates.

Great ending

Okay, as much as I feel the second book dragged along, this book was nonstop action and discoveries. The pacing was a bit faster but I feel like everything was resolved and we’re all left with a happily ever after (because who doesn’t like those).

The series as a whole did a nice job of introducing different magical communities, having a romantic interest, and a typical teenager saves everyone plot that is common with young adult novels but it was still enjoyable.

Ending is predictable, love scenes seem a bit predictable as well, but it’s a decent book.
