Hello Readersthis week I read the second book of the Gifted series.While the first one focuses on Amanda and a little bit on Jenna but for the second book it focuses on Jenna and a little bit on Amanda.It is written by Marilyn Kaye and it was published in 2009.
The good
.Amanda and Jenna are both great leading characters
.The story has more depth this time
.The characters feels more developed
The bad
.Like the first one it is too short
.I really hoped there was more scene with Amanda and Jenna together
Quick summary
Now Amanda is fo6rce to attend the Gifted class but at least she have a chance to date Ken.All goes right until she accidentally feels sorry for Ken and suddenly she finds herself in Ken's body and learns what a nuisance having Ken's Gift which is talking to dead people.Jenna is staying with Tracey for a while because her mother is at rehab and suddenly comes a guy who says that Jenna is his daughter......That's it I guess
The conclusion
Gifted:Better Late Than Never proves to be in its own way to be better tahn the first book In the first book some charcters especially the villian feels aa little bit transparent but in the second book almost all the characters come solidly the story also has more depth when comparing to the first book but it would've been really nice if it was longer and I really hoped Amanda and Jenna did something together in this book they are great characters alone but when being paired up they are absolutely terrific.This book definitely makes me wonder what is in store for the third book.
