A fitting sequel to Butterfly Garden and yet much less disturbing. Priya is a lovable yet fierce teen who is just as much a part of the Quantico Three as any outsider could be. The relationship between her and Eddison is perfect and her choice of companions in her new town feels natural. The most shocking parts of this story isn't so much in the "monster" as it is in the quiet moments in between. Definitely looking forward to the next book in the series, even if the "bad guy" for this story was pretty predictable.
