STAR RATINGS GUIDE
Awesome Sequel. Does not disappoint.
THE BIRDICT
The emotional rollercoaster is strong with this one and only solidified my strength of feeling for the characters. And when I say emotional, I mean the full spectrum from afraid to zealous (or better emotions starting with z... answers on a postcard).
This is darker than the first book, but still has plenty of fun, humour and new characters I really enjoyed. SLF almost creates a whole new world (Aladdin puns always intended) within the one we already experienced in the first book.
Also, see the spoilers slider below... if you dare.
SQUAWKING THE TALK
Julia Whelan keeps up the high standards and develops the characters brilliantly. She is one of the best at diversifying between male and female voices. I think she does so seamlessly.

There are deaths, Significant deaths. I won't name names, but be prepared. I have read many reviews in which people were angered by this and I get it. This did start off on the lighter end of the genre. Personally, I just cried on my cat and accepted it because I think this sets it apart from YA and SLF does it well, but you need to know this going in.
