Publisher's Summary
New York City, 2118. A glittering vision of the future, where anything is possible - if you want it enough.
The dazzling sequel to The Thousandth Floor.
Manhattan is home to a thousand-story supertower, a beacon of futuristic glamour and high-tech luxury...and to millions of people living scandalous, secretive lives.
Leda is haunted by nightmares of what happened on the worst night of her life. She's afraid the truth will get out - which is why she hires WATT, her very own hacker, to keep an eye on all of the witnesses for her. But what happens when their business relationship turns personal?
When Rylin receives a scholarship to an elite upper-floor school, her life transforms overnight. But being here also means seeing the boy she loves: the one whose heart she broke and who broke hers in return.
Avery is grappling with the reality of her forbidden romance - is there anywhere in the world that's safe for them to be together?
And then there's Calliope, the mysterious, bohemian beauty who's arrived in New York with a devious goal in mind - and too many secrets to count.
Here in the tower, no-one is safe - because someone is watching their every move, someone with revenge in mind. After all, in a world of such dazzling heights, you're always only one step away from a devastating fall....

Great second book
The story continues with the characters you know (and perhaps dislike) plus a new character called Calliope. It continues in the vein of a futuristic Gossip Girl but this tale includes less drugs and more development. There is one highly questionable romance in the story.
The performance was nice although the accents were a bit flaky and all the men sounded the same, which is perhaps how they are written, as a bit one dimensional (except for Watt).
Fans of the first book will like it. Fans of Gossip Girl and Pretty Little Liars probably will too.

High key love this series
This is so trashy. I love it. So much. It's basically dystopian Gossip Girl and how could anyone not want that?

Story
The long path to the throne has only just begun for Aelin Galathynius. Loyalties have been broken and bought, friends have been lost and gained, and those who possess magic find themselves at odds with those don't. As the kingdoms of Erilea fracture around her, enemies must become allies if Aelin is to keep those she loves from falling to the dark forces poised to claim her world. With war looming on all horizons, the only chance for salvation lies in a desperate quest that may mark the end of everything Aelin holds dear.

Chaol Westfall has always defined himself by his unwavering loyalty, his strength, and his position as the captain of the Guard. But all of that has changed since the glass castle shattered, since his men were slaughtered, since the king of Adarlan spared him from a killing blow, but left his body broken. His only shot at recovery lies with the legendary healers of the Torre Cesme in Antica - the stronghold of the southern continent's mighty empire.

Twelve-year-old Sophie has never quite fit into her life. She’s skipped multiple grades and doesn’t really connect with the older kids at school, but she’s not comfortable with her family, either. The reason? Sophie’s a Telepath, someone who can read minds. No one knows her secret - at least, that’s what she thinks.... But the day Sophie meets Fitz, a mysterious (and adorable) boy, she learns she’s not alone. He’s a Telepath too, and it turns out the reason she has never felt at home is that, well...she isn’t. Fitz opens Sophie’s eyes to a shocking truth....
