I havent read the first one~I think this must have been on sale and thats why I bought it. I didnt know for sure what to expect even tho it has good reviews. I am happy to say I really like the story and the characters. The author has a way of making the first person stream of consciousness interesting, which I suspect is hard to do. (A good example of highly effective first person stream of conscious narrating can be found in Robin McKinely's Sunshine) There were a few grammatical errors on the level of using "you're" instead of "your." There were a few places where the characters and/or narrator repeated themselves (which a beta reader could catch.) That is why I took off one star, as well as for the book unexpectedly ending at 90%. It seemed rather abrupt. But I recommend this book and I look forward to reading the sequels!
