Waterfall by Lauren Kate

1.0

At first I wanted to give this at least a two star rating because the book DOES have interesting concept and I think I keep holding onto the fact I really loved book one. Somehow I knew I wouldn't like this. I put off reading this for THREE years. It's sat on my shelf and I was never super interested in finding out more, but at the same time I wanted to know more on the year stuff. Unfortunately this book felt like it was much longer than it should be. I understand why, it's legitimately a completely different world (in fact there's two) than the WHOLE first book. Perhaps that's why I didn't love it? There was so much time spent in this book learning everything from scratch (because no one explained shit the book before).

There was so many characters and things happening, but it ended up feeling super slow paced and while I sort of liked the ending, I didn't like the vast majority of this book. Don't get me wrong, I don't HATE it, it just really wasn't for me. And I was super upset about the Andre/Brooks crap and the ending was weird and everyone getting powers was weird. And that's mainly how I felt about the book. It was ALL weird. It wasn't like the first book, the new stuff was just all weird.
