The continuing saga of Cara and Quin in the second book of the 3rd Freak House trilogy, “Banished,“ continues the excellent story begun in the first. With only a very brief period of time elapsing between the first and second books, Quin is once again drawn into Cara’s world to combat a very real threat. Although Cara was hoping that Quin would be brought back to her in some way, the evil that they must confront is more than she can handle, posing a danger to everyone, and not something she would wish on anyone.

This time around you find out a little more about Quin’s world, as well as the explanation for the actions and reactions of some of the secondary characters. Each of these revelations give you more of an idea of the overall picture as well as insight into other worlds beyond this one.

Overall, the feel of this book was much darker than the first, but that didn’t detract in any way from Cara and Quin’s bantering. Their thoughts and feelings for each other seem to become less humorous as they fall deeper in love and the fact that they can’t stay together hits them harder each time.

One final note is on the secondary romance of Sylvia and Tommy. Things start to heat up with them and there’s definitely a bit more action between the two. I’m definitely hoping for a satisfying conclusion to their story, as well as Cara and Quin’s, in the last book of this trilogy.

**I was provided a free copy of this book by the author in exchange for an honest review**

While i enjoyed it, this one just felt like filler to make the story last longer. I hope the last book is better.

Despite being tired I couldn't sleep so I thought I would read just a chapter or two. Then I finished the book. Another brilliant novel in the series
