First off, let me just say I loved Wither, but after reading it I really didn't feel like it needed another book. It could have been a standalone. But, Destafano's writing is was so good in #1 and the cover for this one was so appealing I thought, what the heck, I'll give it a go.

2. to defeat the fulfillment of (hopes, plans, etc.); thwart; frustrate

So, I still feel like Whither could have been a standalone. This book is the epitome of a filler book. I couldn't get completely invested until the last 50 pages or so. The carnival scenes just bored me to tears. I will admit I skimmed a bit through them. I know why we have to have Maddie as a character, but she got on my nerves (I know without even speaking), she just felt very third-wheel.

Spoilers:

I only really got interested once Vaughn found Rhine. I am very curious where book #3 will go, considering that mention of Rowan at the very end. I do hope Silas and Gabriel team up to save Rhine, but who knows?!?!? Speaking of Gabriel, he fell flat for me this go round. I hate to say this, but this whole book felt sort of lazy to me. I really am hoping for some redemtion in the next installement.

I want to give this book 3 stars just because I loved Wither so much, but it's really more of a 2.5......

Yep. I'm a little disapointed.
