Let me sum up this book in a word: frustrating.
Please, please, please let this girl experience a consequence that she learns from. Evangeline is dead set on cutting off her nose to spite her face, she’s got a wildly annoying moral code that she never examines or turns from, and both traits are wildly successful at getting her further from her goal and/or finding any answers (which, by the way, any answers she finds are rarely her own doing). Jacks is possessive and detached, for whatever brooding reasons he has, and entirely unskilled at manipulation, which was difficult to watch. The romance didn’t do enough to prop up the story, but it did seem like a bit of an apology that the author threw in to prevent total discontentment, which I appreciated.
Despite it all, like I said in my OUABH review, I can’t shake the feeling that this is an oversimplified version of something that’s actually, really, good. I still might come back and read the third book. Sigh.
