My Opinion:
It wasn't as good as the first one. It just... wasn't. I don't know why exactly. It was cute and charming.... but it wasn't as good. It was well written, but even the author said she only wrote the sequel because the readers asked for it. It was an afterthought. And it was obvious.
I mean, the plot was good.... but it was sort of bland for me.
But, give it a try... you just might like it.
