My Review
Okay, I'll admit that I started this and the details of the last book
were a little...shall we say....hazy! So I did have some confusion.
It took me a little while to get into this instalment, but when I did it was dark and highly intriguing! I really liked how dangerous the storyline was and how Cassie turned into a kick-butt character!
Gabriella Poole has written this really well and I was always interested in what was going to be lurking around every corner. The downfall for me was the disconnect from the characters. I didn't really click with them and I found the romance a little cold and forced and places.
The storyline follows Cassie Bell, in her second term at Darke Academy. After the explosive events of her first term, she will need a little time adjusting to her new life as one of The Few. But Cassie isn't just a normal member of The Few, she is a little different to say the least.
Cassie struggles with her new powers and her ravenous hunger. She has no time to adjust smoothly though, an old enemy with a score to settle turns up and starts trouble.
This is an action packed instalment that is full of surprises and dark moments. I'm extremely intrigued with the differences in Cassie and her wicked spirit and I'm very interested to see just how powerful she is when her full power is finally unleashed.
