** spoiler alert ** 
 Ummmmm.... I'm starting to think that the only reason I'm buying this Series to read is because the covers are pretty... other than that--eh. 
 Okay, so I have to admit that the first book wasn't that great (but I liked it still) and I was exicted for this book. I was excited because the ending of the first book was a cliffhanger and I was wondering how the author was going to complete the next book. I was so sure that she was going to go all out and make it sooooo amazing... 
 Except she made it...not what I expected. 
 First I'll talk about the change in chapters. If you've read this book already you'll know that each chapter rotates perspectives between Cassia and Ky. When I first found out I wasn't too fond of the idea. When I started reading it I still didn't like the idea. Cassia and Ky have almost the same brains! Seriously! Maybe that's just what I thought--but I'm telling the truth when I say that a few times while reading I had to go back and check which perspectives I'm reading. The only bright side of this is that us readers get to learn more about Ky and how he acts, what he thinks, other than that--eh. 
 Second: SAY WHAT? I felt like I was lost most of the time due to the fact that I was soooo confused at to what was happening. Cassia and Indie would do one thing---Ky, Vick, and Eli would do another thing. Vick at first was an irritating character, but when he told his story I learned to like his character...then he died. I thought that sucked. Not just Vick dies, that other boy dies too (we never learned his name, all we know is that he ran with Cassia and Indie). After those deaths and others I was expecting Eli or Indie to drop dead at any second. Seems like what was happening in this book. The only two survivors seemed to be Ky and Cassia (obviously because they were the main characters). 
 Three: What is Xander's secret? Xander has a secret? That was what I was thinking as I went on. It seemed like something mega important...at first I didn't care much about it because it's just a secret, but then Ky went on thinking about how if Cassia ever knew, she would leave him for Xander and it got me wondering, "what is that damn secret!" Exentually it's out that Xander happens to be in the--I'm not going to say it--and I thought, "That's it". I didn't expect that. Not at all... I was sort of expecting Ky to say that Xander's secret was that he's dying or something worse, but it wasn't that. 
 Four: The ending. Oh my my my.... When Cassia and Ky were split up again I was like, "Please don't tell me the third book is going to be all about them reuniting!" It proably won't, but I felt dissapointed. I didn't want another cliffhanger, and even now that there is a cliffhanger I kind of don't want to read the next book... but I probably will because I'm a sucker for beautiful covers (I love placing them on my wall and just looking at the beauty) so yeah, you'll probably see another review for the third book by me... 
 All in all, even though I put three stars it's more like a two and a half...
