We meet again Molly Barlow, you may remember her from “99 Days” (If not you can refresh yourself on my blog, here). I sugarcoated my dislike of Molly in that original post, I waxed poetic about how people are flawed and it was good to read flawed characters (I still believe that by the way) however I truly think Molly is annoying. I was hoping she’d grow out of it but in this sequel I’m still not so sure.
The sequel takes place a year later, so Molly has a year of college under her belt (and a few intense life experiences that get revealed later in the book) so she is a different person. She has a new boyfriend, Ian, and they’re on holiday in Europe. Ian is a sweet Boston boy whom she met at college and he is honestly too pure for her. But I digress. While on vacation who should show up but Gabe, of course, and his new girlfriend Sadie who are on vacation together. Ian, being the jovial person he is, invites Gabe and Sadie to come to Ireland with them (to visit Imogen). The four start an unlikely traveling group and the follies that befall them are interesting and captivating.
I still think Molly is not the best person, and Gabe is still a prat. Ian and Sadie were too pure for this book. I liked it, I was engaged, and then I was glad it was over. I live for drama (as I said before) and I read a lot of these books for the tension so it had exactly what I wanted in it. It was a good beach read.
Happy Reading.
