I loved Jus Accardo's debut novel Touch and even though I wasn't a HUGE fan of the sequel I know that she's a great author that is why I've been interested in this novel ever since the blurb came out.Darker Days is a great book and has restored my faith in the author. I'm definitely going to read more books by her now! I would like to warn you though, that there are quite a few similarities between some of characters in Touch and Darker Days. One thing I noticed was how just like Kale , Lukas was naive and didn't know how the modern world worked but I was enjoying the novel so much that I was willing to look these over .I loved Jessie.She's snarky,sarcastic and has awesome one liners.I love the fact that she's not concerned with dating and doesn't keep talking about hot guys all the time. The girl is not superficial and I love that about her. I would suggest you read this novel just for her.Another thing I would like to mention is the fact that parents do play a pretty large role in the novel which was nice.Damien (Jessie's father) is one character I would love to see more of in the sequel. For some reason I really like him.There were quite a few twists and turns especially towards the end of the novel.I couldn't predict almost any of them .This book reminded me a little bit of the Soul Screamers series by Rachel Vincent but it isn't as serious as that series so if you're looking for something like it you could check out this book.Overall,I for one am dying to read the sequel.
