At the start too much overlap with book 1, just from a different point of view.
Way too much page time for the child. Why is there always a little brother, baby nephew or (that's the worst) own kid involved?
And sure, you have an epileptic little brother but plan to "hunker down" in Chicago for the winter. That's what you do, right?
And where is the little brother when Issac is turning tricks?

Not convinced...
