it was amazing
bookshelves: 2016, trilogy, what-the-hell-is-going-on, mystery, ebook

This was just as good as the first book in the series, though it didn't move quite as fast, at first. Still, it intrigued me throughout. I learnt my lesson from book 1 - and didn't really bother trying to figure out what was going on or put too much effort into guessing what would happen next; just went along for the crazy ride. And it didn't disappoint.

Ethan is still struggling to control his conflicting emotions - and is trying to fit into his new role in Wayward Pines. There are still a lot of secrets to be uncovered in this supposedly idyllic little town - even after the big reveal at the end of the first book. Interestingly, Theresa seems to have some secrets that she's kept hidden. I wonder how that's going to play out? Just like the first book, this ends with a cliffhanger as well, which is no bad thing - unless you were one of those lucky people that read the books when they were first released and had to wait for the next one in the trilogy. Glad I wasn't one of them. That would have been excruciating.

Anyway, I enjoyed this as much as the first book, despite it's change of pace - and can't wait to start the next one.

Super pissed at Hassler when we find out about him, I wasn't expecting that (the shit). And I wish Hector would find something else to do other than play the piano. It's no wonder people want to leave."

Sherry Fundin When I saw this catergory...what the hell is going on...I had to come over and check these out. LOL


RedemptionDenied @Sherry. I need to do a re-read of this trilogy (better be quadrilogy) - sometime. I really enjoyed this series. Are you going to read it, sometime?


message 5: by Sherry (new)

Sherry Fundin A reread? I guess that means it's worth putting on my reading list. :-)

Paula K Terrific review, RD!


RedemptionDenied @Sherry. I hope you enjoy it (when/if) you get around to reading it, and look forward to reading your thoughts. Don't forget: to start with book 1, then this one, assuming you like it, of course.


RedemptionDenied Thank you, Paula! :)
