I didn’t enjoy In Keeping Secrets quite as much as I did The Second Stage, but it is a phenomenal continuation nonetheless. It is action-packed and leaves you on the edge of your seat. The ending sets the reader up beautifully for the comics and music that chronologically follow the book. Looking forward to continuing the series.

Update for my 2020 re-read:
I actually increased my rating from 4 to 5 stars and now prefer this one to Second Stage. I think this book does a great job of filling in the gaps that the Second Stage left. The universe that Sanchez creates is so elaborate and imaginative. This book is really a joy to read.
