I loved how the first book in this series felt like a nod to the revengesploitation films of the 70s, but from a sort of feminist lens. SILVER TEARS, on the other hand, felt like a major backslide. To me, it kind of feels like the same sort of situation as those unnecessary romantic comedy sequels, where the writers break up the hard-won couple with drama and the plot basically repeats itself. Sometimes, it's better to just have the happy ending and leave a story alone, imo. I think Faye has suffered enough. The writing is good but this ended up just being a really hard and unpleasant read for me. I've been struggling with it for months and decided I don't really want to continue anymore.
2 to 2.5 out of 5 stars
