This was definitely a middle book in a series. My problem with trilogies is that the first book is usually solid, as is the third, but the second is always kind of mid (pun intended). This book didn't add a ton to the last one so much as dragged things out, and had no real ending or conclusion, since it's meant to set up the third book in the series. If anything, this book just made me frustrated with the characters. Anyway, I hope that the third book is better and ties things up, because this one didn't do much for the series!
Graphic: Infidelity
Moderate: Death and Death of parent
