Goodreads Synopsis:
Sisters Anna and Kat return for the second book of Megan Rose Gedris's paranormal circus murder mystery, Spectacle!A murder is tough thing to solve, even without temperamental performers, supernatural occurrences, and the ghost of the victim giving commentary. But as Kat's only link to the living world, it's up to scientifically-minded Anna to figure out who killed her sister—before any more murders rock the small traveling community. Yet as she gets closer to finding a lead, even more unbelievable events obscure the truth: roustabouts start sprouting horns, performers grow forked tongues, and a demon visits Anna's sleep at night. Does Kat know more than she's letting on? And can Anna keep the circus—let alone herself—safe?
Review:
Volume 2 of Spectacle was still interesting but it didn't really further the plot as much as I would have like it to. There were no questions answered only more and more added and no solutions. Anna is still trying to figure out who murdered her sister but really there isn't any progress there and other weird things are happening but again, nothing is resolved.
In this installment, Anna and Kat learn more about each other, and Anna makes a few more friends whih is nice to see but we really haven't learned much about why she doesn't have a lot of friends in the first place. I would be interested to learn more about her time at the circus up to this point for a bit more context. We are also getting snippets in dream about Anna and Kat's past that I think is very interesting but hasn't played into the plot yet.
I was left with more questions than answers and it was a little discouraging but I have the next volume so hopefully it allows me some closure on some of the issues.
