5/5 Stars!!

Holy shit. Holy fucking shit!

First off, I need the next book. Now. Because you cannot leave me like that.

Vera Nazarian's writing drew me in with her first book and continued to draw me in in this next installment. Even though Gwen Qualified, she still has a lot of drama to go through. And man, is there DRAMA.

I don't even know how to give this a proper review right now since I just finished it. So it is possible I will be editing this over the next few days. My emotions are running so high. I was squealing and bouncing in my seat. That is how amazing this book is. I read at work since it's slow, and I would have to stop reading this book (even though I didn't want to) so that I wouldn't get so engrossed.

Goddam the characterization of these characters are phenomenal. I realize a few of them become more background characters as we continue to follow Gwen's journey, but that doesn't make them any less important. And they didn't just simply fade away. They were still constantly brought up and we got to continually see how they effect those around. And the new characters? Holy hell were they awesome!

I am so glad I bought this right after finishing Qualify. I honestly hate that I have to wait for the next installment to be published.

I’m glad I read the second book in the series.  The writing is more fluid and the story flows much better. 

Already downloaded the third. I’m committed now.
