Oh my gosh! With such a huge cliffhanger at the end of book one, I was so happy that I could grab book two immediately! And I was not disappointed. Not only did I get some answers to this mystery, I also was treated to some twists that made me doubt my conclusions about how this was going to end. And, of course, there are still several questions to be answered...including one very important one, one that has my heart racing!! Couldn't ask for a better way to continue this story! 
 I really enjoyed following this story with Hanna and learning bits and pieces of it as she did. With her amnesia, she's unable to remember the past year but as each day passes, her memories slowly creep back and help her fill in the blanks. Some memories are surprising and some help us cement our ideas about what happened on that fateful night where she fell down the stairs. We go deeper into the story and the background of these characters and start to connect the dots. There is tons of emotion here. I was equal parts happy, sad, confused, mad, suspicious and in love. If you read my review of the first book, you know I'm totally Team Nate and, I must say, that my heart can't take much more! This book has me questioning everything and has my heart completely broken for Nate at times. So much so that I may have tweeted my distress about what would happen between Nate and Hanna. I must also tell you that the author forced me to see Max in a different light in this story and I, begrudgingly, started to like him a bit more. Ms. Ryan doesn't make this easy for me or for Hanna and that's what makes this book great! 
 I love the characters here, both the main characters and the secondary ones. Hanna's sisters and friends feel very real to me and are they type of people I'd surround myself with in real life. Her mother continues to be frustrating and I'm not sure I'll ever really like her. And, of course, Nate and Max continue to complicate the story and pull at my heartstrings. 
 I know that I really haven't told you much but I can't because I don't want to ruin this story for you. For me, exploring each memory and making decisions about what I think actually happened was fantastic. And, if I give you some hints, I know that there's a small chance of spoiling your enjoyment...and I won't do that. Just trust me when I say that I devoured this book and moved immediately on to book three which, by the way, I bought right after reading book one...that should tell you something. Go read it now!
