I enjoyed the first book in this series much more. There was a closeness and intimacy between the characters that I just didn't get with this one. The storyline meandered, and not in an enjoyable way. You're never quite sure where the characters are going. They decide on a path to get to know each other, then the smallest bump in the road deters them.
The secondary characters are two dimensional, and in this case don't do a lot to further the story. They ramble about what has to be done, but that's all you get, them telling you. The dialogue is stilted and a mix between formal and common vernacular. In one sentence you get 'I am, and I will' and a couple sentences later you get 'I'm and I'll'.
All in all I found this edition of the series to be a tedious read. I'll need to debate on whether or not to read the next one.

The proofreaders missed some spots when they did their job.
