It’s not easy to put my love for A Want So Wicked by Suzanne Young into words. I really, really liked the first book in this series, A Need So Beautiful, but I wouldn’t say I was jumping over couches (gah that’s such an old and bad reference).

But with A Want So Wicked? I picked it up and couldn’t put it down. I was SO CONFUSED for the first few bits of A Want So Wicked because uhm, if you read the summary, you’ll see why. I was like WHAT is going on who are these people WHERE IS CHARLOTTE AND HARLIN AHHH.

And it was kind of awesome that A Want So Wicked made me feel so passionately confused and I just…I want to fangirl over A Want So Wicked. I loved the new characters, Elise, Lucy, and their pastor father, and even Abe. Of course, I loved the characters from A Need So Beautiful who made unexpected appearances in this one.

My only complaint – I wanted to see and understand more about Harlin, what he was thinking at this point. I understand why we (readers and the protagonist) weren’t as close to him in A Want So Wicked as we had been in A Need So Beautiful, but it made me all kinds of sad.

Uhm. Also. The ending. Just another reason why I loved it more than A Need So Beautiful. I know as of right now there is no third book, but I need to know what happens after, please and thank you!

A Want So Wicked by Suzanne Young was everything I wanted the sequel to be – heartbreaking, confusing, giggle-causing, and left me very, very content. If you haven’t read this series, do so. Immediately.

A Want So Wicked definitely isn’t your typical sequel. It doesn’t exactly pick up where the first leaves off, but it’s not on the same level as a companion novel either. I loved that Young did something a little out of the ordinary.

I felt as if there were just too many things thrown at Elise for me to gain the same kind of connection as I did with Charlotte. With Charlotte we were focusing on her and her life and how the Need would affect her and those around her. I felt a deep sadness for her when the Need won out, but with Elise I felt a little sad and that was about it. I still shed a few tears, but the emotions just didn’t feel quite as intense as the first time around.

I liked how the visions and little aspects from book one were interspersed in this one. The reader already knows much of the story, but we still get a few tidbits of people’s pasts that we didn’t know before. I also thought it was interesting going into it already knowing pretty much everything while Elise was in the dark. I don’t know that I’ve ever experienced that with a book before.

The Nutshell: Overall, A Want So Wicked is a great sequel. It wasn’t quite on par with the first book for me, but I still enjoyed it :]
