Blurb from Goodreads:
It’s time to choose sides….
On the surface, Sorry-in-the-Vale is a sleepy English town. But Kami Glass knows the truth. Sorry-in-the-Vale is full of magic. In the old days, the Lynburn family ruled with fear, terrifying the people into submission in order to kill for blood and power. Now the Lynburns are back, and Rob Lynburn is gathering sorcerers so that the town can return to the old ways.
But Rob and his followers aren’t the only sorcerers in town. A decision must be made: pay the blood sacrifice, or fight. For Kami, this means more than just choosing between good and evil. With her link to Jared Lynburn severed, she’s now free to love anyone she chooses. But who should that be?
A darkly humorous take on Gothic romance, Sarah Rees Brennan’s Lynburn Legacy weaves together the tale of a heroine desperate to protect those she loves, two boys hoping to be saved, and the magical forces that will shape their destiny.
My Thoughts:Since the last book ended on quite a cliffhanger, I was extremely motivated to read this book.
It was very hard for me to accept that the link between Jared and Kami was broken. Imagine how hard it must have been for the characters themselves to accept that.
Usually, I hate it when love triangle dramas and romance takes over the precedence of the book but this book is sorcery. I was somehow, more hooked on it because of all that. I loved it. It has humor, it has sass, it made me want to get inside the book and knock some sense into Jared.
Characters:The characters in this book are just the best. They are dynamic, flawed and complex and I thought I knew them in the first book; they developed even more in this book. All of the characters had their own distinct personality. Holly, Rusty, Angela, Kami’s family and Lillian. I really liked how all of them had something to add to this story.
Kami’s dad is just as sassy as in the first book. His even out sassed Lillian, the ice queen sorceress.
