Together Ethan and Lena can face anything Gatlin throws at them, but after suffering a tragic loss, Lena starts to pull away, keeping secrets that test their relationship. And now that Ethan's eyes have been opened to the darker side of Gatlin, there's no going back. Haunted by strange visions only he can see, Ethan is pulled deeper into his town's tangled history and finds himself caught up in the dangerous network of underground passageways endlessly crisscrossing the South, where nothing is as it seems.

A slow start but upon reflection I think I liked it even better than the first book of the series.
Uh oh....Ridley's been a bad girl. Tut tut!!
So it actually took me a while to get back into this series. After reading Beautiful Creatures, and thinking it was slightly too long and a little out streched I felt like I needed a change. I'm glad I started on Beautiful Darkness because it was so much better than Beautiful Creatures.
I especially loved the development of Ridley's character. I think she's kick-ass!!! And Link is awesome too.
I didn't however like Liv. I thought it was a little pointless having her there since she actually didn't do anything. There was no need for her to be there and I think she was just put there to make readers think that maybe she could have been a distraction for Ethan. Otherwise she was pretty pointless.
I did really enough the story though. There were a few twists and turns I really didn't expect but one massive one I so knew was coming but I shall continue with the series and hope it gets better. It has to get better with a cliff hanger like that!!
Usually you open the second book in a series like you do watching a horror flick, thru a crack between 2 of the fingers of the hand covering your eyes. Afraid to find out the second book is not as good as the first, but yet you can't not look either.
Thankfully I enjoyed this one! I wished I'd read this closer to the first book as there are many references to the first that I've forgotten. Also, the list of family members on each side of the wedding aisle is huge and sometimes hard to keep track of. But the author stays focused on the storyline and doesn't get bogged down in detail and minutia.
Putting the rest of the series on the TBR list.
Decepción!!!! uno de esos libro que fue mejor no leer, siempre he dicho que mi curiosidad me ocasionarían problemas, en este caso, bastante aburrimiento.
Todo el libro es inestable, comienzo aburrido, el transcurso de la historia se pone interesante para volver a caer en lo aburrido. No me gusto, pero le pongo dos estrellas, porque tuvo buenos momentos.
Puntos buenos, creo que son Link y Liv, Macon también, pero muy poco.
Cómo siempre el punto malo, con la emo de Lena, o sea: un par de cachetadones no le vendrían mal a esta muchacha!!! Ethan tan patético como siempre, parecía que se iba a redimir pero... en fin.
Me parece que el libro pudo dar más, es mi opinión.
