i really enjoyed this book and everything between cole and mara. i wasn't expecting this one to be as good as the first one, especially after looking a the playlist compared to the first playlist (weird, i know) but i honestly liked this one more than the first book. I suppose it's due to the fact that I feel like it was more "romantic" than the first. they are both wonderful books, i just enjoyed the humor and bonding in this one more than the antics of the first book.
