A review by carroq
Crowded, Vol. 2 TP, by Christopher Sebela

3.0

The second volume of this series starts out pretty rough. It keeps some of the beats of Vita and Charlie on the run and kicking ass, but somehow it losses the fun of it. I think part of it is Charlie (and Sebela) trying to keep back the details of what might have caused someone to start a REAPR campaign against her.

I found the second half of this book to be a lot better. Partly because the relationship between Vita and Charlie changes in some ways. It also regains that lightheartedness that was missing from the first portion of the volume. The balance between the serious and the fun was much better toward the end. It left me hopeful that the series will keep its momentum without overstaying itself.
