4.0
Note: This is the 2nd book in a trilogy, I feel like anything can be a spoiler even just reading a description of the book, so be wary of that!
General Description: After a harrowing escape, May Bird and her friends make their way up north to the Lady of the North Farm. However, it's not a straight shot to the farm. Can her and her friends make it there in one piece and what will they discover when they finally meet the mysterious Lady of the North Farm?
The good:
- I LOVED how much more we traveled in the Ever After. I felt like we were able to see so much more of the creative world Jodi created.
- Again, the side characters/trope that we are following are all wonderful.
- I like May Bird's own growth in this book more than her growth in the first book.
- I enjoyed seeing more of the villains in this book and the creatures that lurk in the night.
The loss of a star:
- This book specifically feels like a book that was made to get us to book 3? It felt more rushed than I would have preferred it to be and it leads me to think this could have been a duology potentially. Just not my favorite way to split up a story.
Overall: If you liked book #1 in this series, I think you'd also like book #2
