I find this a very difficult review to write. I enjoyed the first book in this series so much. I loved the whole moral dilemma that was woven into it. My heart ached and hurt. And I was so proud of Eva while reading the book.
The first book ends with Eva, now called Angela, going back to earth to find the two missing members of the ring. It starts immediately with her being on earth in a rural area. A woman called Jane passes her, offers to take her to town, and eventually even offers her a place to stay.
And that is where Angela's journey starts. She is trying to follow her heart, instinct and does everything she can to find the two missing members.
But I must admit, I wasn't really invested in her journey on earth. This second book feels so different from the first. The first was fast paced, had me on the edge of my seat - and I was so curious after what the in-between all meant.
The second book is quite slow. And it felt a little.. woolly? I had a hard time connecting and understanding her actions, and her talks with Thomas felt so far away.
I missed that fast paced edge. I missed the mystery and the throbbing in my veins.
SPOILER ALERT!
Even when she reunites with Luke. I didn't feel it. And when she has to make the choice to take him with her, or leave him behind. I didn't feel that. While in the first book my heart broke when she had to make a similar choice regarding Luke.
I think the huge difference in how the book feels, left me a little disappointed. I ached for pain, hardship and difficult choices. This book lacked that a little bit.
But overall, I truly loved the first one. And even though it took me a while longer to read this one. I am still curious to read the third one. I hope the third one will have the same magic as the first book. And the same pace.
So 3 stars from me!

This was a fast-paced, interesting read, that I found I did not want to put down! Great, multi-faceted characters. Vivid descriptions. Kept me captivated from the first page to the last. A uniquely-cool read!

This is a great story of personal choices. THE RING is the second installment in the In-Between trilogy by Sagar Constantin. A wonderful, well written series with amazing and interesting characters. I was eagerly waiting for this installment and was not disappointed. Looking for number three.
This story starts out a little slowly, but before you know it you're hooked and can't put it down. Eva was in a plane crash and woke up in a place called the In-Between. Now she has been asked to return to earth with an extremely important task -- To save humanity and the In-Between. She's tasked with finding two unknown people worthy of joining the RING. She only has 42 days to find and return to the IN-BETWEEN with them. With no idea who they are or where on earth they might be, Eva needs to use her intuition and "gut" feelings to find the correct people. To complicate matters, she runs into a former friend and the one person she hoped never to see again - and they recognize her even though she has a different body.
I highly recommend this series, not only for a good story but for directions into personal insight. I can't wait to see where Eva's soul takes her next.
I did receive an advance reader copy and this is my honest and freely given review.

This was so good, even better than The Life, I was hooked from the start and even ended up reading it in the middle of the night, I'm sure I couldn't sleep due to thinking about what was going to happen. It ends on a bit of a cliff hanger so I will be reading the third installment, The Hope, next.

I loved the first book in the In-Between series, The Life, and have been anxiously waiting for this one. It does not disappoint. Eva has gone back to earth in another body and name, Angela, and she is looking for two missing members of the Ring, a group in the In-Between, which could help mankind. In her travels, she meets many people. Will she be able to find the right two before she has to go back? A lot of twists and turns. I was not able to put this book down. I highly recommend this book and this series.

Eva has come back to earth as Angela. She must find the last two members of a group called the Ring in the in-between. She only has 42 days to find them. She has found five people to take back to be tested. However, you can't get to the in-between unless you are dead. She is not sure about two of them. They may even be lying about who they are. There are a lot of twists and turns that will keep you turning pages as quickly as you can.
I voluntarily received a copy of this book and I'm voluntarily posting a review. My opinion is entirely my own.

The Ring - a review by Rosemary Kenny.
Sagar Constantin's second book of the In Between series is The Ring, a sci-fi/fantasy adventure.
Eva, aka Angela, returns to Earth to reunite all 7 members of the eponymous Ring, then take them to the In Between to be tested.
She has found five, but is not sure if the last two are trustworthy, or even who they say they are - and has only 6 weeks to make sure - or else Earth will suffer destruction! How will Angela be certain?
Get your copy of Sagar Constantin's The Ring, to find out how things are resolved in the end!

I have enjoyed this series, 'The Life' first in the series really makes you think, now in 'The Ring' it was exciting to see what 'Angela' would do next. Wanting to help her with her task, you find yourself trying to solve it all. The book really draws you in. I can't wait to read more of Sagar's books.
I received this book as an ARC from the Author.

Shorter than the first one, not quite as good as the first, but still left me wanting more.

Once again, once you start this book 2 you just can't put it down. Eva, a part of the ring, has to go back to earth from the in-between with the task of finding the final two members of the ring so they can save earth. She only has 42 days to fulfill her mission and takes the name, Angela. But the two new members she is to get to the in-between to fulfill her task, they have to be dead. With so many twists and turns she doesn't know what is true and what is not and how is she going to find out who are the real two when she has found 5 potential members. Who is lying? She is faced with a great deal in her time and it is weighing on her as well. Can she do it? Can she be able to get the two correct people back to complete the ring and save earth? And what about Gabriel? Is he going to ruin it all? And what is she going to do when she runs into people that she knew and although she is in a different body, they seem to know who she really is? What a great read! I can't wait to see what happens in book three of this trilogy. I received and ARC of this book but the opinions expressed here are strictly my own.

This is the second book in the series, and I haven’t read the first. While this is an acceptable stand-alone, I suspect I would have enjoyed it more had I read the first book before starting this one.
I was more than half-way through the book before I really engaged. The first half is pretty slow with more conversation than action. There is also a lot of pontification, spouting trite cliche’s that I don’t agree with.
A little past the half-way mark the pressure on the main protagonist increased enough to catch my interest. I felt her struggle to make the correct decisions in what looked like a no win situation. Also, the powerful interaction between mothers and children brought tears to my eyes. In the second half, the author manages to convey compelling emotions that brought me into the story.
This is certainly worth the time and effort to read.

A page-turning second part
The Ring by Sagar Constanstin is the second book of the series “The In-Between”.
This novel brings another unexpected twist, this time Angela, the main character, has only fourty two days to find the ring. This object will change the galaxy and its species forever, but, of course, it is not easy to find it. In order to get the ring, the characters need unity, but working as a team with time constraints could be difficult.
I believe readers should read the first novel in order to follow the rhythm and gist of the story.
Although I would shorten the novel a little bit, I give it four stars because it is page-turning.

The IN-BETWEEN series is very good and this second installment by Sagar Constantini was a very good read. The plot is riveting; it was difficult to stop reading so it kept me awake for many nights because I wanted to know what would happen next.
The Ring captivated me from the very beginning; I liked the message within its pages and how the author created the characters and scenes. She uses great descriptions that made me imagine what was going on.
I would recommend reading this novel and even the complete series. The author created a very interesting world that will captivate readers across genres.

Sagar Constantin is the author of the novel "THE RING", which is the second book in the IN-BETWEEN series. In this work, Angela returns to Earth and has forty-two days to gather to find the last two members of the Ring. If she manages to find them, Humanity will be harmonious again, but she knows that it is not easy. Will she be able to find them and thus restore peace?
The author has a writing style that I loved; she is super descriptive when narrating the scenes and she really makes the reader feel what the characters are feeling. I definitely recommend this captivating book.

THE RING by Sagar Constantine is Book #2 in The IN-BETWEEN series. Although I enjoyed the first book in this series, The Life, immensely I hate to say I didn’t care much for The Ring. The Life was captivating and exciting. I was invested in seeing where this In-Between would take Eva. Unfortunately, The Ring was not a page turner like The Life. The first half of the book was quite boring. The fact that Eva (now called Angela) was sent back to earth to find two missing members of the ring was intriguing but ended up being very slow and disconnected. There were a lot of descriptions that could have been left out. More action, more conversations would have helped, but reading about every day mundane things for the first 56% of the book got boring fast. I continued to read though and am glad I did. The last half of the book was much better although I did not care for the ending. I won’t go into it as I do not want to post any spoilers. I was much more interested in her time in the In-Between than I was her time on earth. Now that she’s back in the In-Between I’m hoping the 3rd book, The Hope will be as exciting as The Life was. I received a free ARC from the author.

This is the second book in the series and I highly recommend reading the first one before this book. I loved the first book so I think you will too.
Eva is now on an assignment, back on earth. She has to find the two remaining souls to complete the ring. She has no clues and no idea where or how to look.
She finds herself in a new body, but located near to where her son and his father are now living. She is on a tight schedule and has no money, no clothes except for what she's wearing, and no where to go. Through the kindness of strangers, she starts her assignment. Some people she meets are sure that they have met her before. Also, Eva, now Angela, seems to be experiencing glimpses of her prior lives, through history.
This is a riveting book. I wanted to stay up to finish it, but my eyes said no.

This is a brilliant read.
Wonderful well written plot and story line that had me engaged from the start.
Love the well fleshed out characters and found them believable.
Great suspense and found myself second guessing every thought I had continuously.
Can't wait to read what the author brings out next.
Recommend reading.
