Short Synopsis: Evie has always wanted a normal life, and now that she has a chance to live one, Evie's not so sure it's all that it's cracked up to be. But as she continues through normalcy, IPCA is giving Evie a chance to come back and join forces once again.
My Thoughts: An interesting read, but in my opinion, not as great as the original.
Evie is back and is struggling with her normal life of striving for perfect grades, getting through the dreaded PE class, and doing everything she can in order to get into the same college as Lend. But having the perfect "normal" life isn't how Evie thought it would be.
Everything starts to seem too normal, and life for Evie becomes a bit too boring. Even the appeal of her locker has lost its charm. But as soon as Evie wishes for something different, IPCA has offered Evie a place back into the organization.
Evie gladly accepts the offer, hoping her place in the organization will do some good for the supernaturals. But Evie isn't prepared for what's about to come. With new and foreign supernaturals coming into play, a hunky new boy named Jack vying for her attention, her ex-boyfriend Reth continuing to surprise her, and the faerie courts starting a battle, Evie has no idea what she's gotten herself into.
I loved coming back to a story with familiar characters and an interesting background that I know I will enjoy. But for some reason, this book didn't really hold my attention all that well until the second half of the novel.
There was actually quite a bit that bothered me through out the novel. I had an inkling suspicion that Jack wasn't really who he said he was. Evie in this novel seemed really whiny to me and a bit overly dramatic when she didn't get into the college she wanted. Granted, it gets upsetting that you don't get in, but it doesn't automatically mean that life is over.
I also felt that Evie was a bit too loose around guys. Kissing Jack, and another supernatural guy, all while still being with Lend. Not to mention her multiple run ins with her ex.
It was still an interesting read, with entertaining characters, and new experiences to look forward to. It just wasn't what I expected, and hopefully the next one in the series will be redeeming.
Would I recommend this book: Eh
Rating: I give this book a 3/5.
