While this book is part of the series, it felt very different from book one. Mafi does a good job of explaining important details that happened in that book here, but there are a few spoilers for book one in this one.
That being said, I would highly recommend you read Furthermore first. I thought the only similarities would be the magical worlds, so I was happy to see some familiar faces.
Going into this book, I was expecting it to be a companion novel to the first book, which I suppose it was, but Alice and Oliver were a part of most of the story, something I wasn't expecting. Alice's mission is to save Laylee before it is too late and the spirits take their revenge. Laylee is taken for granted and soon she won't be able to handle the work the town gives her. After returning from their journey in Furthermore, Alice and Oliver set off on a new adventure, Alice's Surrender. Laylee lives in Whichwood, a magical place connected to Ferenwood by secret underwater elevators. This story follows Laylee, a girl who is part of a line of mordeshoors, people who wash the bodies of the dead to help their spirits transition to Otherwhere.
