I haven't read the 1st Horrid High. This book is cool enough as a standalone read. The mystery is okay. But regular twists keep the reader hooked. I was initially very pissed off by the frequent mention of Volumina "sitting on someone" - why is this book promoting unfair cliche's ... but the story turns around - very good trick by the author to make the reader connect - get them to sympathize. I had a hitch that the rare plants mentioned are real plants - the book mentions at last that they're real RARE plants ... This added a heady excitement - at least for me.
