I'm just as excited to read about the next haunting as I was after reading the first. Schwab's created a true ghostly gem.

The "villain", if you will, of the story tries to kill Cassidy (main character) and her parents throughout the book. People are often abandoned in the Catacombs if not found quickly. There is also a scene full of low-detail car accidents,

and Cassidy (main character) nearly gets hit by a car.

I am absolutely enjoying this series so much. I have missed Cassidy's and Jacob's story. In hope I'll get book #3 soon!

Paris was definitely a good choice for a haunting story. It kinda makes me want to go there again, and see the catacombs, instead of only wandering around for the art galleries.

  

"He seems happier, lighter, after sharing his story. I feel a little heavier after hearing it, but that's okay. That's how friendship works. You learn to share the weight." - p283.

Eine wunderbare Fortsetzung der Reihe mit Einleitung ins nächste Buch. Ich bin gespannt, wo es hingeht und was die Zukunft für Cassidy und Jacob bringt.

 Eu gostei mais dessa leitura, por ter um quê sombrio maior, ao mesmo tempo que me deixou mais instigada de entender tudo que estava acontecendo. Gostei de ter um desfecho mais bem trabalhado que o primeiro livro, na minha opinião, foi mais intenso, condizente com a narrativa como um todo, dessa vez não fiquei com a sensação de que foi fácil demais para uma criança de 12 anos (sigo inconformada com isso rsrsrsrs mas agora, parando pra pensar com mais calma, HP e Percy Jackson também tinham essa idade nas primeiras aventuras, ou seja, será que é um sintoma de ficar mais velha?! Achando coisa de jovem demais rsrsrsrs). 

O gancho para o terceiro e último livro da trilogia me pegou demais, estou curiosíssima para entender o que está rolando e como dona VE Schwab vai finalizar esse universo.

I loved how this book took place in paris, and had little french references and speech. It was funny at times, but then also became spooky, mysterious, and adventurous. I loved this and the first book so much!
