Week 48 Review: Envy

From Goodreads:
The Furies are back in the second book of a chilling paranormal trilogy where revenge rules the day—and "sorry" isn't going to cut it. 

Spring is coming, and the ice is slowly melting in Ascension... revealing the secrets buried beneath.

Emily Winters knows the Furies have roots in Ascension, Maine—but she's about to discover that they're deeper than she ever imagined. With the help of her new friend Drea, she vows to dig them out. But it's hard to focus when she's desperate to make up with JD, and to figure out why Crow, a mysterious Ascension High dropout, seems to be shadowing her.

Meanwhile, new girl Skylar McVoy is determined to leave her own dark past behind. So she's thrilled when popular Gabby takes her under her wing, and the stunning and sophisticated Meg offers to give her a major makeover. But everyone knows what happens to the vainest girl of all…

It's tempting to be naughty. But beware: the Furies are always watching, and their power grows stronger by the day.

My Review:
So it's been a while since I read Fury. So I had forgotten a few things, and I can't remember how much Drea and Crow were mentioned then. But no matter, because they play pretty big roles in this book, which was awesome!

So Em did some pretty bad things in the ending of Fury, like the whole thing with the agreement that she mad with the furies. And because of that ending, things between her and JD are frosty. Like, the opposite of good, but pretty much non-existent, because he avoids her.

But then there's Drea and Crow, who actually know about this world, and are able to help her, trying to find a way out. But it's not as easy as that, so yeah, there were things happening there! It was just so great!

Then there was new girl Skylar, who has a not-so-good past, a past that furies like to use and manipulate and such. And when she makes friends with Gabby, Em's old friend, the one who's boyfriend Em cheated on with, yeah. Didn't help matters!

This was such a great book, and amped up my need for the 3rd and final book, Eternity! It's going to be awesome!
