I didn't like this book as much as the first one in the series. The narrator changed to the older sister and I found her personality difficult to like. Even in the first book I wasn't very fond of her so I came into this with some bias. This story just made me dislike Lula even more, I found her to be whiny but she's been through a lot so I try to remind myself of that. 

The start of the book was really good. It hooked me within the first couple chapters and for a while it captured my attention. Somewhere in the middle things slowed down and I had to keep pushing myself to read but it picked up again towards the end. 

I'm really interested to see where the last book goes. I feel like the setting might be one of my favorite places, so fingers crossed!
