I loved this and it's a really good sequel!I was totally hooked this weekend as you will see by how much of this series I managed to read.
MY FEELS OH MY GOSH MY FEELS! This is absolutely the most heart wrenching, gut tearing, depressing novel I have ever been blessed to read! Literally for the first half of the novel I was just sitting here like: AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY VISION STARTED TO GET BLURRY AND THE GATEWAY OF TEARS JUST FLOODED OUT AND NO MATTER HOW MUCH I TRIED- I COULDN'T STOP THEM! SERIOUSLY , THIS BOOK WAS THE DEATH OF ME I JUST SAT IN MY ROOM AT 4:30 IN THE MORNING WITH A BOX OF TISSUES AND UGLY CRYING AND NOT

I liked this better than the first one. In my opinion the characters gets more depth in this which makes it ugh so painful.
this is a solid DNF I'm gonna write a review when I'm not completely pissed off at this book :)
