I have to be honest, it was not nearly as good as the original, but still good! Cannot wait for number three

I really wanted to like this book as much as the first, but I really didn't. I still liked Camelia's character, but Ben sort of bothered me in this book. He came across as needy, and kind of got on my nerves. He wanted to talk to Camelia, then he didn't, then he couldn't live without her, and then wanted to push her away. It sort of got old. The new stalker kind of threw me for a loop as well. I didn't see it coming, and it was a little far-fetched for me to really believe. So, overall, this book didn't grab me like the first book. I'll most likely read the next book, but this one was just okay for me. The author has 5 books planned in the series, so hopefully the next one will be a little better. Usually I shy away from books that have more than 3 in the series, so I'll see if the next one keeps me interested enough to continue reading them.
Now,that being said, the writing was good, and the characters grew a lot. Camelia got to the point where the world wasn't just about Ben, and came to realize she may have "powers" as well as he does. I did think Camelia's aunts journal entries were interesting as well. I'm curious to see how close her and Camelia's "gifts" or "powers" might be.

Not as good and suspenseful as the first; however, still worth reading if you have read the first.

The end does segue for a third book and the way it is set up makes me really eager to read it.

Second book into the series and I'm convinced this girl has the worst luck in history. I hate a terrible love triangle. Introducing a second love interest that is lacking the chemistry needed for an actual love triangle is quite annoying.

continuing the crazy saga. New characters, new details and...finally, some more information and a little resolution.

This one was a great addition to book one. I'm eager to read book 3 to see how this goes!

I felt this book was a bit rushed and like it left some stuff out.

Really enjoyed the first book in this series, but Book 2 wasn’t as good.

It seemed to be pretty much more of the same. Don’t know if I will continue with this series
