"A promise you can’t keep is just another lie."

I can't say I waited for this book as long as most of the fans. I read Vicious first in June so my wait was mercifully short in comparison. Still, it was a long awaited read that didn't disappoint me. Not only did we reunite with characters we know and love or hate, there were also many new characters, one of them being among my new favorites, June.

This was a 4-star read, only because I thought it paled in comparison to 5-star Vicious but the ending established that it is just as deserving of 5 stars as Vicious. It is rare that a sequel doesn't disappoint.

The way the characters' paths cross is genius, a natural consequence of their personalities and ambitions instead of a series of coincidences. The title matches perfectly with its plot and I still can't get over how a simple sentence said by a character in anger (the one I quoted) foreshadows (maybe I'm overanalyzing but) one of the most important revelations of the ending.

So I can safely say that I was once again not disappointed.
