Review
The Hidden Library is
the second book in the Collectors’ Society series. The first book was action
packed and full of adventure and this book just takes all of that up a notch.
Heather Lyons created an amazing sequel and I can’t wait for more from this author.
This book picks up
right where we left off with the rest of the Collectors’ Society crew. We get
to follow Alice and Finn in their latest adventures. Following around literary
characters that are truly alive and well. These literary characters live are
called timelines and some type of evil is trying to destroy these timelines. It
is up to the Collectors’ Society to keep these characters and their timelines
safe.
While this story was
as interesting as the first I found the beginning was a little hard to get
into. It didn’t immediately suck me in like the first one did. And that quickly
changed. Once I get back into the story and the characters the story picked up
for me. I love how this story is set up and written. It takes place in the
twenty first century but it seems to be written like a historical fiction book.
The writing is lyrical and flows really well. Heather Lyons created an intricate
and captivating plot with dynamic characters.
My only real problem
was with the romance. Alice is such a strong and amazing character that her
personality seemed to completely overshadow the romance in the book. I didn’t
really feel the bond between Alice and Finn. Plus it seems that there is
someone else and that took away from it as well. Other than that I really
enjoyed the whole story. There was a lot to like about this series and I can’t
wait to continue with what this author has to offer.
