Once again, I am impressed with how different the vibes are from this new series compared to the older SVH series. This one feels a lot more emotional, dark, and heavy. The older series was more lighthearted and naive, and would only skim briefly through difficult topics. This newer one isn't afraid to get down and dirty. And ironically, it feels like a breath of fresh air. 

I don't have the book between this (SVH:SY #4) and the first (SVH:SY #2) book I read, so I missed out on some details but not much has happened, because most of their stresses and worries are similar or on-going. There are a few more characters having their own POV this time, which was great to read up on. I'm starting to love Jeremy and I hope things get better for him (and poor Jessica!). I'm psyched for more!
