A good follow up to the Good Luck Girls. I like that they had a bigger group in this and that people really started to work together. Violet will sanction your morally dubious acts and I love her for it. I really enjoyed the characters of Raven and Derrick but adding more characters with so much going on meant other dynamics suffered a bit imo. Would have liked to see more of Clementine & Aster's bond. Also to have a little more time developing the romantic relationship between Aster and [redacted].

I'm pretty sure this series is a duology, so there won't be more in this world. This breaks my heart, because I would happily read at least a dozen more books about these characters and the world they live in, but at the same time I love it because these two books clearly tell exactly the story Davis wanted to tell, and that story really doesn't need anything else. Basically, I just love these books and hope a lot of other people find them, read them, and love them, too.
