I didn't enjoy this as much as I thought I would or as much as I feel I should considering Steifvater is one of my all favourite authors. Rich entitled boy racers are not my thing apparently. I did like Ronan's story though, particularly towards the end but overall it was a bit of a struggle. *IF*, and it is a big if, I read the next book I might seriously consider giving both books a reread. It has been so long since I read book 1 I had really forgotten a lot of the key details and plot lines.
