My oh my how Jessica Darling has grown. Seriously though it's amazing to think back to the vocabulary and thought process of her in the first book and compare it to this one. There were some words I even had to look up lol. I guess that's what a Columbia education gets you..... I also think her maturing has made her see Bethany in a new light. I think the only one that hasn't growth up yet is Manda. Having read the jacket for Perfect Fifths I'm interested to see what happens next.
