I feel like this one was even better than the first!! It's so, SO satisfying as a reader when you can piece together a mystery before it's stated.

I like every part of this book except David; I dislike David so much it almost ruins my enjoyment of everything else in the book.

This instalment was just as spooky and atmospheric as the first book; I was completely hooked and read it in a day. Also, I liked that Stevie was actually investigating this time around. However, this series didn’t need to be three books. The plot and mystery are spread pretty thin, especially the romance with David, where the conflict just feels contrived. I also predicted who Truly Devious was early on in the first book. A predictable solution to a mystery doesn’t necessarily mean docked stars, but it does if the solution feels meh or unsatisfying, which is sort of the case here. I really hope things pick up in the third book.
