Book Review: Stolen (Coldest Fae #2)

Stolen

Stolen

Katerina Martinez

3/5

In this sequel novel that's kind of a fantasy mix of The Selection and the Bachelor we get to see to delve a little deeper into Dahlia's origins and into the evils of the fae world. The book picks up a week after the previous book left off and dives nearly immediately into the next step in the competition. While you learn a lot more throughout, many things are left open-ended. 

I liked it but I think I had similar complaints to what I had with the first book. I will say that the relationships she had with the other contestants were a lot better than they were in the last book. I wanted her to have friendships and she definitely does now but I'm still looking for more. I think that the characters have chemistry in a platonic and romance sense but the author is relying a little too much on that initial chemistry rather than taking the time to strengthen it through conversations or interactions. 

I'll be looking out for the next book, I think that there are a lot of interesting places that the series could go. I don't know how I'm feeling about the possession angle but I will give the author props for keeping me wanting more.
