An ok read, pretty much kept up with the pace of book 1 but the ending left me speechless, can't wait for part 3!

I liked the overall story. It had a good consistent flow. However, there were a couple of annoying issues that I can't let go. 1. I don't like when Authors put themselves in their books. It's ridiculous! 2. The editing, or lack there of, got worse at the end of the book and it was bad from page 1. Even though, these two were total turn offs, I did enjoy the book and will read part 3. Oh yeah, what also made it quite difficult was that two of the characters had similar names, Raya and Riyah. It drove me mad to the point that I had to map out each character, like I was back in eight grade, to keep up with who was who.
