What It's About!
Everyone has secrets. I had no idea mine would lead me into shadow. Dez has found the place where she belongs. With the otherkin. With Caleb. Or so she thought. As the barriers between our world and Othersphere fall, a wall rises between Dez and Caleb, leaving her fiercest enemy her only friend.
And maybe something more.
Now Dez must make a devastating choice: keep the love of her life, or save the otherkin from annihilation.

Review
Since
I had really loved the first book, Otherkin, I had gone into this book
having some pretty high expectations. I guess they were a little too
high, though, for I couldn't quite get into it for the first quarter of
the book. It was really slow and boring.
After setting it down and taking a break from it, however, I ended up really enjoying it. Especially near the end when things get super heated and exciting! There was also a part in the book that made me want to cry, I don't understand why writers all think they have to break couples up all the time, why can't just one couple be strong enough to stay together, no matter the jealousy, and anything else? WHY can't any of the characters ever stick around long enough to find out that what they think is totally different from the truth?
Anyway, back to my review. I thought the plot twists in this one were amazing. It was 10x better than the first book. I just couldn't get enough! Othermoon emotionally pulled me in a lot more than the first book did, I have to admit. I think it's because in this second book, I already knew the characters and had time to get attached to my favorite ones before I even started reading this book. I just loved it so much!
Yes, the beginning is boring and feels like the same old stuff as the first book, but once it picks up, it doesn't stop!
