• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

I looved it but some of the plot points were really reminiscent of the first book. However! Terrible! And Chess had some character development! Only a little bit, but at least something.

I found out that this is technically an unfinished series but the last book was released in 2013...so not sure if I'll finish the series. We kind of left off at a point where I'm satisfied with the relationship between Chess and Terrible. I really wanted Chess to realize that she can live without drugs and knowing that we'll not get to read that anytime soon is very frustrating.
