Commentary Toward Books The Madness Underneath (Shades of London #2)

After her near-fatal run-in with the Jack the Ripper copycat, Rory Deveaux has been living in Bristol under the close watch of her parents. So when her therapist suddenly suggests she return to Wexford, Rory jumps at the chance to get back to her friends.

But Rory’s brush with the Ripper touched her more than she thought possible: she’s become a human terminus, with the power to eliminate ghosts on contact. She soon finds out that the Shades—the city’s secret ghost-fighting police—are responsible for her return. The Ripper may be gone, but now there is a string of new inexplicable deaths threatening London. Rory has evidence that the deaths are no coincidence. Something much more sinister is going on, and now she must convince the squad to listen to her before it’s too late.

In this follow-up to the Edgar Award–nominated The Name of the Star, Maureen Johnson adds another layer of spectacularly gruesome details to the streets of London that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.

Write Up Epithetical Books The Madness Underneath (Shades of London #2)

If you're like me, whenever you get invested in a book series, you're worried the remaining books won't live up to the first one, right? Well, you won't have to worry about that with The Madness Underneath. It is one of the rare ones. A sequel that is even better than the first one. It is everything you hope for in a sequel. This book has made me feel so many genuine emotions (scared, sad, worried and heart broken) and the ending is a whopper. Rory is one of my favorite characters. I love her

Thoughts on the Cover Is it just me... or does that cover look A HELL OF A LOT like the Morganville Vampires series?

After loving Maureen Johnson from afar, largely via her very entertaining Twitter feed, I was thrilled that she was venturing into the world of speculative fiction by delving into the horror of Jack the Ripper, ghosts, and mystery via a London boarding school and secret police force. Thats much more up my alley than her usual contemporary route. Not only did I thoroughly enjoy The Name of the Star, I didnt forget about it, and am still constantly recommending it to readers over a year later.

This is the second book in the "Shades of London" series. I loved the first book, and I really enjoyed this one too. It doesn't have the suspense of the first book, I don't think, but I just love Maureen Johnson's writing so I just liked the experience of reading this book.This book does have a lot of the same characters as the first, and the main protagonist is still Rory, and I do love Rory's voice in these books, and I find her an easy character to like and to root for.I think it won't be too

3.5/5starsA bit of a lower rating mostly because it was just setting up the final book so not a TON happened. Super interested to continue after that ending though!!

What exactly will this book be about? I LOVED The Name of the Star, and I am dying for the sequel to be released, but I'm confused as to what it will be about. The kind-of cliffhanger of book one raised the potential for the sequel, but the Ripper is gone, so... will there be a 3rd Ripper? Will the Ripper return? What happens to Jerome and Rory?!?! Extremely cute couple, but I can't deny that I'm curious if Steven and Rory will get together.... Will there even be a bad ghost in this book, or

Can I be honest? I feel... a bit manipulated. I am going through a horrible reading slump right now, so I know that I am a lot less tolerant than I would have been prior to this dry spell. So my review of this book might be a bit harsher. I feel that despite my rather harsh criticism, I am being fair and respectful, which are crucial to me as a reviewer.I loved the first book, The Name of the Star, and I gave it five stars. I actually thought it was quite brilliant. In comparison, my feelings
