A review by skyhazzard
Underworld by Meg Cabot
5.0
This book was a whole lot easier to read than the last one (not saying that I didn't like the last one, cause I did, but I noticed I had a headache each time I read it because of the time narration jumping). I liked the flow of this one.
I really enjoyed the new characters as well as the old ones joining us again. Have to say Henry and Frank were my favorite new ones. Henry was just so sweet and excited to experience things. I was surprised I liked Frank as much as I did because when you meet him he's being quite the jerk to Pierce. But I don't know, getting to spend more time with him he grew on me. I especially liked when Kayla took in interest in him, I mean he's been in the Underworld for how long without any female interaction? It was cute. I liked how he'd call her Miss Kayla. I'm glad we got to find out why Alex doesn't like Seth Rector. Not only did he bully him (which from when you first meet Seth, totally doesn't seem like him) but there's the thing with their dads. I really can't believe they let Chris take the fall for something that they were all involved with and which Mr. Rector and Mr. Endicott are still involved with it seems. But I think it's very respectable that Chris doesn't want anything from them (seeming part of their money should be his). What can I say, I love Uncle Chris.
But OMG! What happened to Alex! I thought that they'd actually save him, not bring him back to life. And for a while there I was sure he was dead as in DEAD, NEVER COMING BACK. I was so heartbroken because I like Alex and was going to be so upset if he was dead for real because I hate when characters get killed off, especially when I'm really attached to them.
I'm still processing (and counting down the days till the next book) what happened that I can't even remember the rest of what I was going to say.
This book was better than the first and I can't wait for Awaken
