In my opinion, this book is not as good as Dancing On My Grave. Of course, Dancing On My Grave is more interesting in terms of the story and the drama, but this book seems to dwell on little things like details about glances between Gelsey and her husband. It was just plain weird and kinda kooky and I think she felt like she had to put a nice blanket over the previous book.
