Some aspects of this book that I really enjoyed is that we got to see more parts of Oz, we get to see the 'wingless ones' which was very strange but very entertaining. Just because there wasn't much character or plot development, Danielle still had the amazing storytelling of her version of Oz. In my opinion, this series could've been a two book series just because of the awkwardness of this one. It just means that you're not going to be that invested in the story. This book was bridge to the next book, and that's not really a bad thing. There was almost no plot development, or character development which is something that I look for especially in sequels. To me this was just what I call a 'filler', a 'filler' is something used to fit words on a page that have no point to the story. In this book, Amy is basically just revisiting her past and finally realizing what she feels.
I understand why authors have sequels that do almost nothing for the plot, I just wish they could find a way to incorporate more into the story. I have bad experiences with sequels that are half the size of the first, so what I predicted was that nothing would happen and this sequel wouldn't really feel needed. The first thing I noticed about this when I first held it in my hands was that it was a lot shorter then the first, in fact it was shorter then the novella bind up.
