I loved the story, the world building and meeting the different characters. I felt completely immersed in the story and couldn't stop reading it.

Having just finished reading I Feed Her to the Beast, I was excited to read this ARC of I Am The Dark that Answers When You Call by Jamison Shea. Sometimes it takes a sequel a few chapters to pick up where the first book left off. This is not the case for I Am the Dark. The continuation of the previous storyline, despite time passing, is fairly seamless. This story follows Laure, returned from the dead in the new form after the conclusion of I Feed Her to the Beast. She is living a new life while still trying to hold on to elements of her old. Soon she realizes that Elysium is dying and there is trouble with other acolytes forcing her to reckon with herself, who she is, and what she wants. The plot and character building are the same as in the first book, fairly steady paced. There is enough action and character conflicts to sustain the plot. The world building remains fairly strong although sometimes the pacing felt a bit off about halfway through. That being said, it is a worth sequel and a solid horror book for teens. Thank you to Net Galley and the publishers for the ARC.
