i don't know why i bother with this series. the first book was bad enough, so i should've known the second one will only be worse. not a lot of action, too much self-talking on Nora's part. and Nora is the most infuriating heroine i've ever read in a book. she lacks character and it seemed she didn't grow up since book one. don't read this one, it was such a waste of time.
