I was pleasantly surprised with this one! It was goofy and fun, but also had some poignant moments that I wasn't expecting. The premise doesn't make a ton of logical sense, but I just went with it. Ness was fun to follow - she is a terrible coward who runs away at the first sign of a nightmare. And I could have used more Priya and Cy - they were delightful. I had no idea where the story was going, but it was a fun ride!

This was a great sequel to City of Nightmares. It's a lot like the first, but the relationships between the characters are explored a bit more, and we get to know the city better. The characters, especially Ness, learned some and became stronger. I love these characters!
