Summary: 

After winning the trust of the Others residing in the Lakeside Courtyard, Meg Corbyn has had trouble figuring out what it means to live among them. As a human, Meg should be barely tolerated prey, but her abilities as a cassandra sangue make her something more.

The appearance of two addictive drugs has sparked violence between the humans and the Others, resulting in the murder of both species in nearby cities. So when Meg has a dream about blood and black feathers in the snow, Simon Wolfgard—Lakeside’s shape-shifting leader—wonders if their blood prophet dreamed of a past attack or a future threat.

As the urge to speak prophecies strikes Meg more frequently, trouble finds its way inside the Courtyard. Now, the Others and the handful of humans residing there must work together to stop the man bent on reclaiming their blood prophet—and stop the danger that threatens to destroy them all.

Review:

I picked this for our re-reads session of my Book Club. I made everyone read book 1 the last time, and they liked it....so I made them read book 2 ;) Plus, I've been itching for some more. This series has evolved into a comfort book series FOR sure. 

Weee third time is a charm!

Humans are at it again. The Others are just trying to live. Meg is trying to find balance and her footing. She gained their trust, but there are still some issues.

I remember finding Meg so annoying and slowly warming up to her as the books goes along. Now I love her. I love all our mains. I'm team Others. I would want to work there. 

This is sad. We get to see a glimpse of how the Humans treated people like Meg, and it will make you mad. So sad. Some trigger warnings to be had. Nothing in great detail happens, but it is mentioned, and you can assume the worse. 

Ooooh, that ending. 

The narrator is a gem, and I can't imagine anyone else doing this series. 

Originally, I had this at a 4 the last two times I read it. Seems like it was because of my frustrations with Meg and Simon having so many issues. Silly issues at times. Yes, still silly in my opinion. I might just keep it at 4.
