But with Tunnel of Bones Victoria has found her rhythm, and I was both genuinely intrigued and creeped out. I cannot put my finger on it, but it felt slow and I didn't enjoy the direction that the story had taken as much. I got a little frustrated with City of Ghosts. Plotwise, this sequel was a huge improvement to book one.

I also don't see how Cassidy is a Gryffindor because in my mind she's clearly a Slytherin, but I was also sorted into Gryffindor and I have a growing feeling that this might not be entirely.accurate. So what the heck is going on with Cassidy's best ghost friend Jacob? His reluctance to open up about his past and his thick head drive me mad at times, so I'm glad we finally learnt more about his back story. So I sit and read and wonder and I am always left craving more. She adds kindling to the fire, but she never burns it all. She is an expert at keeping the reader on edge. What I enjoy the most about Victoria's books is that she never gives you all the answers. As with many sequels, the stakes are higher, the enemy is stronger, and Tunnel of Bones is no exception. She stepped up the Cassidy Blake game with this sequel and I am so excited for what Bridge of Souls and a possible fourth book in the series might hold. With Tunnel of Bones Victoria once again proves that she is one of the most talented and hard-working writers out there. She is a one-woman power house and the fact that we will get to experience her worlds on screen sooner or later fills my Schwablin heart. Your eyes play tricks on you, filling in the shadows, making shapes.”ĭoes this woman ever stop writing to, like, breathe? Eat? Go to the loo? Victoria creates story after story, releases book after book and I'M HERE FOR IT. “What you can't see is always scarier than what you can.
