Explanation Conducive To Books The Shadow in the North (Sally Lockhart #2)

"Fraud, fire, and bloody murder pursue Sally Lockhart in a fine sequel to
"The Ruby in the Smoke." Sally, now 22, is in business as a financial
consultant. When she and her friends challenge corrupt financial interests,
they find themselves in a web of intrigue that stretches from fetid slums of
the poor to the corporate offices of the richest man in Europe. Sally's
detective work reveals the connections between corrupt power and broken lives.
The action is fast, scenes are tight and dramatic, the language is vivid, and
the wealth of minor characters are sharply individualized. An immensely
entertaining thriller."--(starred) "Booklist." Reading level: 6.7.

HOLY MOLY. Love. Mystery. Death. Life. Global plots. This has it all.

Get read for an angry rant (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻There were many things I didn't like, but only three of them are truly the table flipping kind. Here they are.1. There's a girl who's so pretty she is assumed to be perfect of character, innocent and divine - just because she's unearthly beautiful. That's how the world works when guys write books, after all.2. In contrast, there's a girl who is disfigured. Naturally, she knows her place in the world and that she would never be loved by the man she wants. So

Bleh! This is not YA in my opinion. The 16-yr-old Sally from the last book is now 22 and Frederick is something like 26. Their concerns and conversations are not YA I think. I like the writing and characters mostly again, but this is dark and deals very frankly with murder and sex.MAJOR SPOILERS here: It was 3-star again until the dumb ending. Sally and Frederick have been having a believable romantic conflict rooted in gender roles--very interesting--but when Sally realizes she does want to

12/28/15:The Shadow in the North is a much stronger book than The Ruby in the Smoke. It is tighter, more intricately plotted, and its characters are more human. Often frustratingly, infuriatingly human. Will I ever forgive that one secondary character? I wonder.12/25/08:I first read The Shadow in the North in France, when I was ten. The Shadow in the North was the first book I read with a sex scene. (It was entirely PG, of course, but I was still, naturally, shocked.) The Shadow in the North was

The girl has grown up!When last we saw her, she was much younger. Young but experienced in the corruption and evils of the world. Young but old beyond her years. Young but ready for revolution!Now older, wiser, but just as angry. Scarred. More scars shall come. Alas!The author is committed to showing that growth. We are all works in progress, no matter how righteous our cause.Much like his protagonist, the author is also angry: at the systematized inequities of the world, at the secret power

Argh I hate this one so much. I mean its a great book and all but I hate what happens at the end.
