What We Saw at Night

review 1: This was even more poorly written, edited, and proofread than the first one. There were whole passages that I had to read two or three times just to figure out what was happening and who was involved. The final showdown felt somehow both rushed and way too dragged out all at the same time, and the twists almost seemed like they were there more for the shock factor than because they made sense. I guess I'm glad I read it to find out what happened and get some closure, but I just didn't feel as close to the characters in this second book and didn't buy into some of their feelings and decisions. Teen readers who like mysteries and suspense would probably still enjoy reading this since the mystery is there: what does Garrett really do to the girls he kills? Is Juliet really de... moread? Will Allie and Rob be together? But, quite frankly, by the end of the book I didn't much care and was just relieved to be done.
review 2: This book continues right where "What We Saw at Night" ended. Allie wants avenge her friend's death and catch her killer, who continues to keep an eye on Allie and Rob. Allie is doing community service hours in the morgue, where she befriends the medical examiner and learns to few things to help her in her investigation. Rob has Allie learn deep water diving, which helps her discover a startling secret that just may cost her her life. There are a couple of twists toward the end, one I liked and one I didn't, but if I was a female teen I probably would have enjoyed more, that's why I give the book only three stars compared to first books four star rating. less
