This follow-up book sees David again solving mysteries with his own (internal) Scooby-gang. It felt like something of a re-telling of the first book and wasn't as compelling here. David's character and madness develop quite a bit here and it is set up for more in the future, which I would relish. Just a little disappointed that it wasn't made more of.

Upon first glance I assumed it was just another take on the post-apocalyptic world. It's not even close to that. It's full of mystery and romance. I was hooked right away. I couldn't wait to see what would happen next. And the plot twist ending was not one I saw coming at all. Books like this is why I continue to read YA.

This movie was almost torture to watch, in fact, I don't even think I made it to the end. I feel like this movie was made for a different demographic than I belong to, because I thought everything and the situations were just lame.
The only redeeming factors were Gal Gadot and Jon Hamm. Other than that, this was a boring, laughless stinker of a film.

A shock of a joy as I don’t like musicals,a feel good movie with all the boxes ticked Great tunes ,well thought out sets. From the opening to the end credits your wrapped up within the warmth of the movie ..ok the story’s a little week but it’s the heart of the the film that matters ..and it’s just a joy to watch ..

This book was entertaining. It is pure sex. There was not a well developed plot. The sex scenes were deffinitely different. It did read like a porn story though.

I liked the characters and I was excited to see a book featuring a psychology professor who was older. I'm just not sure that all of the sex was necessary but to each their own.

This book was all over the place for me, some stories were awesome, super awesome, and some stories were just like, what the heck is this? this is stupid. So that sums up the whole book I think perhaps Click and the train one (I forget what it's called) were my favourite, and perhaps the ring one too .. the rest I could have done without.

Cute cozy mystery that will make you smile!
This book was absolutely delightful! Not just for fans of cozy mysteries, this seems like it would appeal to all sorts of mystery lovers. I am absolutely in love with Flavia de Luce, a precocious 11-year-old with a penchant for poisons. I laughed so much reading this, and can't wait to read more of her adventures!

Great until the end
Contains spoilers, click to show
I loved this series, I kept watching it over and over. I couldn’t get enough. However, the ending was just crap, it felt like an ending a child had made up. Evil twin? Did they really think that was a good idea? The rest is great but I hated the ending.

Barely there entertainment value
The writing is terrible - it sounds like she writes the same sentence structure over and over again...and consults a thesaurus every other sentence when it just isn't necessary. It's also a disgrace to the BDSM community as it is not an accurate depiction of the lifestyle at all. That said, it does have a "one chapter before bed" entertainment value....barely.
