This is a fun continuation of Indexing. What I was interested to read at the end was that the author hadn’t necessarily meant to write another set of stories about these characters, but people kept asking her what was going to come next. Having fairly recently read the original book, I’m not surprised. While that book does have an ending, some of the things they had to do to get there definitely needed some follow through.
I really enjoyed learning more about Sloane – what a great combination of fairy tale tropes. And the new characters were also fun spins on other tropes.
This book did settle things down a bit more, but she could totally do more with these characters, and I would read that book.
