I think this should be more like 3.5 stars, but I don't have that option. I didn't REALLY like it...but I didn't want to put it down, and then when I was finished with it, I dreamt about it.

Not even close to being as good as the first. Is the third any better? I cannot help myself but to go and buy it tomorrow...
I wish I had thought ahead and bought the whole series at once.

Kind of depressing, reading about someone so depressed. I might have to join Team Jacob, though. Still a compelling read, for some reason.
