My Review:You know, I enjoyed it, but I did not love it. To be fair I was not in the mood for a slower, southern Gothic read at the time I picked it up but once I got into it I remembered the pacing from the first book and got my expectations in the right place. I think what intrigued me about the first book, "Beautiful Creatures" is that it had such a different tone from anything else I was reading at the time and it introduced me to the Caster world which I knew nothing about. In the beginning of "Beautiful Darkness" I was trying to remind myself what happened in the previous book because these books are rather long at lots of events take place. I loved the introduction of Liv and of course I love the sisters and Alma since they bring humor into dark and scary situations. This book, in a sense, felt somewhat anti-climatic because there is all this build-up and adventure and then I feel like we landed back at square one. I am not sure I fully understand what Lena's choice means but I think that is the point and all will be revealed in the next books so until then I will be waiting for the story to continue.
