Like Fury, this book was extremely dark, and also like Fury, was a blend of a teen fantasy novel with a psychological thriller. While I normally don't read those sorts of books, and prefer a little more light-heartedness in my books, I couldn't put Envy down. I thought Fury was amazing, but Envy only built on that. I ended up staying up way too late and almost having nightmares, but it was totally worth it.
The ending was absolutely crazy. It was shocking and I LOVED IT. It was the perfect way to reveal crucial information and leave the most amazing cliff-hanger that is leaving me panting for the third book to come out. There was also a lot of death in this novel, and the reality of people dying because of the Furies grounded the story in a way that most other fantasy novels aren't.
5 stars.

Emily Winters knows the Furies have roots in Ascension, Maine—but she’s about to discover that they’re deeper than she ever imagined. With the help of her new friend Drea, she vows to dig them out. But it’s hard to focus when she’s desperate to make up with JD, and to figure out why Crow, a mysterious Ascension High dropout, seems to be shadowing her.
Meanwhile, new girl Skylar McVoy is determined to leave her own dark past behind. So she’s thrilled when popular Gabby takes her under her wing, and the stunning and sophisticated Meg offers to give her a major makeover. But everyone knows what happens to the vainest girl of all…
It’s tempting to be naughty. But beware: the Furies are always watching, and their power grows stronger by the day.
