Cruel Castle by Bryony Pearce

5.0

I really enjoyed this book. But after saying that, I don't know quite what to think or fully say about it. I guess somewhat I expected the sequel to be less violent amd gruesome than the first, though with no basis as to why. And in some ways it both was and wasn't. There were more 'on-screen' deaths in Cruel Castle. And to me, the plot and characters felt more complex than the previous book. A very enjoyable read, but not one for younger readers with a strong warning for violence, and language.l
