About this listen
Cosette Hugo thought she had fulfilled her wish for a beautiful suicide...but she survived. As she begins the slow road to recovery, the guilt of what she has done has become overwhelming. She vows to put her murderous alter ego, Bonnie, behind her forever.
In order to do this, Cosette must rescue Hilda and keep the truth about Hilda's kidnapping a secret. During the rescue things go wrong, and Cosette is forced to kill again. This wakes up Bonnie, now stronger than ever. Tired of the inside turmoil, Cosette has to decide who is going to be in control.
©2015 Atty Eve (P)2018 Atty EveBeing impressed with the originality and pace of book one, as well as being intrigued by the futures of the main protagonists, this reader came to this second part with pleasurable anticipation combined with the expectation of something new and different. It would be very hard to leave even a brief synopsis without spoilers, suffice it to say this reader would have preferred the story to had ended with book one, the originality of My Beautiful Suicide seemingly disintegrating into an alternative Buffy, the Vampire Slayer plot line, with additional off screen sex romps and sado masochism. And loads more baths! With a third book which will, hopefully, return to something more creative, book two has the feeling of a filler between the tales, setting the scene for a more fulfilling climax.
Once again, however, the narration is excellent, with Michelle Sparks becoming the main protagonist, Cossette Hugo, interpreting her first person account with clarity and enthusiastic emotion. Another good performance which kept this reader listening to the end.
My thanks to the rights holder of Controlling Cossette who, at my request, freely gifted me a complimentary copy, via Audiobook Boom. Sadly, it was a disappointment and, if I'm totally brutal, unlike it's predecessor, rather tedious. Not a book that I could recommend: it didn't even have the feel of plausibility. However, I am still interested in reading book three to see where this whole enterprise is headed.
If you don't ask the question,I won't have to lie.
