One word: unexpected. In every what way, unexpected. It took an unexpected amount of time for me to finish this book: fault of a rigorous school semester. It took unexpected turns in unexpected places: although followed the pattern at other points. But the end, the end still has me thinking.

I finished the last fifty or so pages about a month ago, and I’m still thinking about it. How it ended, who the characters were at that point, I can see it all and how it all worked but it’s still sad and satisfying. If that makes sense. I am going to preface now though, this review will be full of spoiler alerts. So if you don’t want me to ruin it for you, I would just skip the end for the rating. Or I’ll just save you the time now, read this book.

An interesting, well-written sequel, with an independent strong heroine and a nice balance between the reality and the paranormal. Still, it wasn't nearly as engaging as The Illusionists.
