This book deals with the shunning of Katie Lapp and her quest in the English world to find her birth mother. This book is just as good as the first one. ( )

This continuation of "The Shunning" definitely did not take the series where I thought it would go. The book had many plot twists, but they were not the type of plot twist that I enjoy. The twists were either entirely predictable or were pulled out of thin air, leaving me shaking my head and wondering where *that* came from.

The characters are two-dimensional and the point of the story is clear from the beginning -- convert as many characters as possible. ( )
