Helpful Score: 1
I loved the first book in the series, however I felt that The Awakening was very slow and not much was accomplished. Chloe still has practically no idea what she can do with her powers and she hasn't met anyone who can help her. In #1 the kids run from a group home, in #2 they run from the bad guys' lair, and at the end they still haven't found a safe haven. They also don't seem any closer to wrapping up the mystery and/or defeating said bad guys.
If this is really going to be a trilogy, book three will have a ton to wrap up for me to find it satisfying. If it is really just the first trilogy in a longer series, I hope that the books don't continue to string the reader along.
I really enjoy her Women of the Otherworld series, and thought that the Darkest Powers trilogy started well, but The Awakening has hit the same second-in-series slump so many trilogies do. I only hope #3 wraps everything up well, or at least introduces a continuation of a larger YA series.
