A lot tamer than my usual reads but definitely one for an emotional but sweet and reflective story about second chances.
Cassidy and Sienna are now together in heaven after the events of book 1 and have to navigate their new surroundings. There are some great additional characters in this one, my favourites being Mateo and Graham.
I liked the concept of the Life Albums as this really helped us look into the consequences of trauma and how we might help those that are struggling.
The ongoing ideal of fighting for souls is an interesting take and the fact the girls have to enter training to do so makes it more believable as far as it can be in this setting. I did have an issue with there being something to learn throughout but as i was learning alongside the girls, it made sense and a good style choice for the book just not for my reading taste.
I absolutely loved the end which was a great cliffhanger! The lead up to that was emotional but made sense for the story and im interested in seeing how the girls navigate this newest hurdle.
Overall a clever, inventive and sweet story that continues to explore the notions of faith and the support it can provide in such extreme circumstances.
