Review of 'Seven Surrenders' on 'Goodreads'

I'm conflicted about Seven Surrenders.

On one hand, I like a challenging mystery, yet I got a bit lost in Too Like the Lighting.
On the other hand I don't like being spoon fed, and Seven Surrenders is a long series of people explaining what happened in Too Like the Lighting, again and again and again.

I'm used to books in a series taking a bit of time to remind you what happened in the previous book.
However in Seven Surrenders I think I got to chapter 19 out of 24 before something new happened.

I guess this is what Seven Surrenders is about, it's about the implications of what was discovered in Too Like the Lighting.
