review 1: Okay people, I have run out of evens. I cannot go any further in this series. The fun voice is marred by the tonal inconsistency. It's hard to get into a happy story when people (and pets) are dying in gruesome, horrific ways. The heroine is not only completely incompetent but not proactive to the point where the plot nearly happens without her. She's incredibly powerful but doesn't know how to do what she does, she just does it. As of book two there is no sign of it getting better. On top of that the world building is just ridiculous. Just a note to all authors: If you're going to have a shadowy government organization you need a government. You know, it would be really hard for the FBI and the IRS to exist without the USA. Just sayin. Anyway, that's it. If I keep going I... more will explode with rage and that's not as entertaining as you'd think. In as a rational a manner as possible I will say that this book was probationary for me. The problems of the first book got even worse here, so I'm firing this series.
review 2: Not as cheery or interesting as the first. While it was better written or, at least, better executed, the plot was more convoluted, the action was less present and all the anxiousness about the Board of the Hidden just turned to nothing which was a complete letdown and disappointment. I also don't see the appeal Riley supposedly has. I mean, he seems like a nice guy but I honestly do not feel the attraction. I much prefer reading about Maurice and Sara. They are great friends and a real treat and pretty much the only thing that kept me captivated. less
