I have mixed feelings. At about the one-third mark, I lost some interest. At the half-way mark, I started skimming. At about the two-thirds mark, I started seriously skimming (as in skipping entire pages). I felt the story got a bit convoluted. Overall, I felt the characters and emotional pieces lacked and the story felt choppy. I just didn't get invested in the characters like I did in book 1. This book just lacked something.
