about book: (summary from Goodreads)

In this thrilling sequel to The Hollow and the Haunted, Miles and Gabriel find themselves ensnared in a web of dark magic beyond their wildest imaginings. Time is running out to change their future, and the dead are hungry...

Perfect for fans of atmospheric queer fantasy romance, including The Raven Cycle, Cemetery Boys and Sixteen Souls.

With Gabriel missing and the death premonition still unbroken, Miles and Charlee race to work out where he is. Armed with the grimoire, they might stand a chance of breaking the curse on Gabriel's family and preventing his death—but only if they can find him.

Miles's parents are furious to learn he's been helping Gabriel—and they don't even know the half of it. Miles is sure understanding the feud between their families is key to lifting the curse. Plus, he'd like them to get to know the boy he's hoping he's maybe, sort-of dating.

With new premonitions changing everything they thought they knew and the dark power of the grimoire whispering in their ears, Miles and Gabriel are running out of time. Both their lives are on the line, and danger might be closer to home than they realize…

my thoughts:

Love, love, love the sequel to this awesome duology by Camilla Raines. The Forsaken And The Fated is the followup to The Hollow And The Haunted and it is terrific! I absolutely LOVED falling back in with familiar and beloved characters, Miles, Gabriel, and Charlee - who once again find themselves mired in DRAMA. I'm talking teen angst issues - school, romance, friendships, family, and of course, the paranormal. Life and death stakes are unfortunately turning out to be the norm for these teens and they do not shy away from confrontation, which makes for a thrilling and emotional story. I enjoyed every minute spent with these characters and their story - what a treat!

I would happily recommend this fantastic duology to anyone and everyone looking for their next great reads - you won't want to miss out! Make sure to grab a copy! Happy reading!
