I liked this better than the first book, Juliet Immortal. Not having to listen to Juliet's constant anger was quite refreshing. It was still heavy on certain aspects being repeated and beaten like a dead horse, and it had the typical happy ending I'd hoped for. I enjoyed seeing everything from Romeo's point of view, though he basically got a free pass because when he was working for the bad guys he wasn't in control of himself.
So I don't know. Not the most impressive book I've read, but it did keep me entertained for four hours when I couldn't fall asleep a few nights ago.

I don't really have much to say about this book, other than I really liked it and I thought it wrapped up the two-book series flawlessly!
All the characters were also awesome too.
YES FOR REDEMTION

I didn't realize there was a sequel to ,"Juliet Immortal" until I saw this in Barnes and Noble last week. I was happy-glad to get some closure on Romeo's end.
The book was good-after reading Gone Girl, it was obviously teenagery, but good brain candy for the middle of the grading period crazies. To an extent, I wasn't surprised with the ending-where everything got tied up happily ever after, but this didn't bother me too badly.

I liked this book even better than Juliet Immortal, even though I was pretty confused at some parts. I ended up really liking Romeo, even though he was an asshole in the first book. I also really liked how this book tied in with the first, and had a very happy and satisfying ending.

Romeo's reimagining worked just as well for me as Juliet's did, though I confess I still loved JULIET IMMORTAL a little more. One reason: the Juliet portions of this novel were confusing to me at first, especially because the worlds and stories change from the first novel to the next, and it takes some effort to keep everything straight. And while it all made sense in the end, that distracted me slightly at the beginning.
Having said that, I found Stacey Jay's writing this time to be just as breathless and engaging. This was the first book I read after having a baby, and I actually made time for it - even sacrificing sleep! - because I had to find out what happened next.
I loved getting to know the character of Ariel; she was strong and vulnerable, and I think Stacey did a fantastic job with her evolution from distrusting loner to girl in love, and on through her transformation. Her emotions and reactions to her situation felt genuine and true to her character.
Romeo was similarly transformed; I love books where the characters actually grow and change!
This was a nice conclusion to the storylines and characters introduced in the first novel, and I recommend it to anyone who's read and enjoyed JULIET IMMORTAL. It would also work as a standalone, but why not check out the first book too? They're both romantic, fast-paced reads!

This's one of those books that you know you would've enjoyed so much more if you picked it up at the right time.
After absolutely adoring the first book I'm just really sad I didn't like this one as much. But see, it has the great qualities in Juliet Immortal, it was just... timing.
Even still, I did quite enjoyed it and I'm happy I read it before the end of the year.
