Supernaturally is the
second book in the trilogy by Kiersten White.
Evie and all the paranormal & human characters are back for a new
adventure. Evie has been trying to fit
into a normal high school and have a normal life. However, her old boss shows up with a boy
named Jack. Evie ends up on several harrowing
adventures with him. Jack is the only
human that can navigate the Faerie Realms.
Evie begins to question her relationship with her boyfriend, Lend.
Evie begins to find normal
life somewhat dull, though she is still fine with it. However, she reluctantly tells her former
boss, Raquel, that she would be willing to take on small jobs with the
International Paranormal Containment Agency.
She figured she’s just going to track down a few vampires; but there has
been a upheaval in the paranormal community and her missions turn out to be a
bit more dangerous.
As the second book, the
story answers some questions left over from the first book. It definitely leads into the third and final
book. I do not think this is a book that
would be enjoyed by a reader who did not read the first book. There are so many paranormal characters that
were introduced in the first book – which was a little overwhelming. This story is a continuation, without any
introductions. If a library has the
first book, they should definitely purchase the second book.
I wasn’t sure how I felt
about this trilogy when I first started it, but after a while, I couldn’t
stop. This book has appeal to readers
who enjoy paranormal romances. There is
a bit of comedy in White’s books that most readers will laugh at. I would say that the books are appropriate in
content for middle school to high school.
Nothing stood out as objectionable.
This quick, enjoyable read will provide readers with an escape into a
world filled with paranormal beings.
