Great sequel.  It is not as funny/sarcastic but still highly entertaining.  You get to hear about Katherine’s background amid all the devastation these girls continue to experience.  So much trauma and heartbreak that I wanted to cry at times, and kill at others.  Although this world is different from our actual history, it is sad the injustices that befall brown/black skin folk are just transformed into a new terror.  I am in awe of this book and the world Justina Ireland has created.  Unlikely allies bound together by a common enemy in a world that was never safe and has always been cruel.  All they can do is try to survive by whatever means.  That changes people, and you are left questioning if you are a survivalist or a killer.  There is morally gray or black and then there is wrong.  Some folk will never get it.  Who’s gonna do something about it.
