The trend of liking each book in this series a little more than the last continues! I loved the healthiness of Gideon and Lee's relationship. I loved their communication, or at least how they tried. How they wanted to know what was bothering the other. How they wanted to discuss things, even when it was hard. How, even when they fought, they immediately wanted to make things right. How they recognized that sometimes fights would happen, but they needed to learn to talk things through rather than blowing up, because fighting was awful for both of them. It's also nice to see a portrayal of an established relationship beyond the initial romance, to see the struggles and effort they put into maintaining their relationship, to see a relationship that isn't all roses and sunshine but is still adorable and sweet. There was a plot and stuff too---I think this one had the best plot yet, actually---including some mystery and some paranormal stuff, but it was the relationship that really shone this time. I could feel the heartbreak when they fought even though I knew they'd make up, I could feel the fear and tension about things, and, most of all, I could feel the emotion and love they had for each other. My thoughts on the audiobook narration can be found in my review of the first book. Overall, these are some great characters, a great relationship, and a great series!
