Rezension

This smart, poignant drama is spot-on in its portrayal of a realistically pivotal time in these deeply likable characters lives as it winds its way slowly into the mystery around what supernatural forces are at play below the surface. . . . Another gripping, magic-filled installment in this rich contemporary fantasy.
Kirkus Reviews

With the same deft narrative style that made the previous book shine, O Donoghue now offers an introspective take on what privileges and responsibilities come with magic, and a more nuanced exploration of the ways in which the characters are bound, involuntarily and by choice, to one another. . . . Fans of paranormal reads will be on the edge of their seats.
School Library Journal

Maeve and her now-magical friends are back in this sequel to All Our Hidden Gifts (2021). And they are definitely gifted: Maeve has gained telepathy; her significant other, Roe, is telekinetic; her ex-friend Lily has wild electrical powers; and Fiona has healing powers. . . As in the first series installment, each chapter is accompanied by an image of a tarot card that hints at the characters and situations within.
Booklist

This spellbinding sequel to All Our Hidden Gifts is a riveting return to the lives of Maeve, Roe, Fiona, and Lily as they navigate their relationships as well as their newfound powers.

    Ich liebe diese Autorin

    Ich habe All Our Hidden Gifts total gerne gelesen und auch The Gifts That Bind Us hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Die Autorin ist mir zum ersten Mal durch Promising Young Women aufgefallen - einfach eine starke, frische und unerschrockene Stimme. Besonders mag ich die Diversität in dieser Reihe. Ich werde die Autorin auf jeden Fall im Auge behalten.

    Buch (Taschenbuch)

    That's not how I like my sequels.

    This is one of the books I couldn't wait to pick up. I loved the first book and picked this one up on release day, forgetting all my other reads. I've been so excited for this but I felt immensely let down when I finished 'The gifts that bind us'. It wasn't what I expected at all and I couldn't help myself but miss all the great things that made the first book so extraordinary and lovable. In fact, the characters were kind of annoying and I couldn't relate to them anymore. I missed the importance of tarot. I hated the fact that suddenly 'everyone' was special and could do magic so that it didn't feel special or magical anymore. Also, there was too much teenage angst for my liking, too much ado about sex so that it felt forced and uncomfortable. I enjoyed the unexpected team-up but hated the shallow reasons behind it. Don't get me wrong, this isn't a terrible read, but it didn't live up to my expectations at all. It was a letdown. I'm not sure if I want to pick up the third book when it's coming.

    This book was easy to like!

    After nearly a year I finally found the time to read the second part of 'All our hidden gifts' and what can I say? It was actually pretty easy to go back to Kilberg and to Maeve and her friends. Meave feels kind of lost in this book. All her friends have plans and goals for the future while she struggles to finish school and can't even begin to think what she'll do afterwards. She is terrified that she and her friends will grow apart and everytime she tries to do something about that it seems to only get worse. Also a dangerous cult still tries to wreak havoc in the city and has some new evil plans in tow. This book turns to a new direction than the first one but I actually liked that a lot. Who would want to read the same thing over and over? Of course it's not just teenager drama but I must say I enjoyed how REAL and authentic this book and it's characters felt. Looking forward to the third and last book!
