The Runaway Viper by Kirsty-Anne Still

5 Stars|Amazon|Goodreads

Meg's Review:

As with the first, Kirsty did not dissappoint. This novel is fantastic. Jace and Joely are running. They are trying to escape Clara and the Viper Rooms. They have a love that is true and strong, but will it be enough? Can they even escape? Can Anyone? The Viper Rooms never let anyone go. Joely is set to be the perfect example of that. Clara isn't one to let things go lightly and she is primed to use Joely to teach everyone what happens when you break the rules. Every fairytale has its evil and Clara is that Evil. This second novel shows how evil she can really be. We are on a roller coaster of crazy, fast paced crazy that leaves you mouth agape at some points and on your toes the next. I love a novel that leaves you cut and dry about the good and the bad in it, and this villain is exactly that, cut and dry. When she pulls Joely back into her clutches it is cringe worthy. Of course we aren't at the end yet, and even with a Not-So-Cliffy ending, we are still left wanting more. As ever with a KAS book, it is a real page turner that you won't be able to put down. A Must Read.
