★★★★
After finishing (and loving) the first book in this series, I almost immediately started reading Nearly Mended, and found myself wondering where the magic from the first book went. While I understand the author's plot ideas, it just fell a bit flat. While the characters were still interesting, the suspense from the first story wasn't nearly as "cliff dangling" but you could definitely still feel the suspense.
There were parts of the story that really did hook you in. In fact, I spent my entire lunch break reading on my phone instead of grading a huge stack of papers. Regardless, it definitely left me reeling, questioning, confused, and wondering WTF.
There were elements of the story that made me uncomfortable to read, but I'm almost positive that that was the point of the story. It's definitely not a happily ever after type story.
p.s. definitely did not judge this one by the cover. it made me scratch my head in confusion!
