Finally continuing this series! I read the first volume last year, when it came in on hold for me at the library and I didn't know why. (I didn't remember requesting it, but apparently I did. Which turned out in my favor, because I liked it.) I was afraid that with a sizeable time gap between reading volumes 1 and 2, I would have trouble falling back into the story, but that wasn't the case. The action picks up immediately following the plot of the first volume, and expands upon and complicates the relationships introduced therein. I enjoyed watching Ada learn more about her world and her sentience, and I'm interested in the conflicts that are developing. This is a series that I find myself tearing through when I read it, but there's something slightly stilted about the dialogue and art that prevents me from giving a full five stars.
