Aftermath is book 2 in the Jericho series. I enjoy the ongoing story of Syd, Maddie, and their friends and family in Jericho. The addition of a foster child, Henry, adds a nice new dimension to the series. I also appreciate the fact that Maddie's mother plays a bigger role in book 2; I really like her. Michael and David are more prominent this time around as well. Altogether, Aftermath is a worthy follow-up to Jericho, but I miss the aspect of meeting someone new, and the awkwardness that ensues. Still, I look forward to reading the final book in the trilogy, Goldenrod.
