Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is an action-packed movie, but its weak storyline held it back. The movie takes place after the events of Jurassic World, where the park is abandoned, leaving dinosaurs to roam free and live naturally. Unfortunately, a volcanic eruption on Isla Nublar threatens the lives of the dinosaurs, forcing our protagonists to save the dinosaurs and uncover a sinister operation.
Good Girl, Bad Blood follows Pip after the events of solving her last case. It doesn’t take long for Pip to take on a new case. When Jamie Reynolds disappears on the anniversary of Andie Bell's death, Pip recognizes that it’s too big of a coincidence to ignore. While this book wasn’t as good as the first one I still really liked it. I thought that it very quickly picked up after the events of the last book, and had really good pacing overall.

Maia Tamarin has traveled to the very ends of the earth to create three otherworldly dresses made from the laughter of the sun, the tears of the moon, and the blood of the stars.

However, Maia has much, much more to worry about.
This book is by far better than Ungifted, in my opinion. I liked how Donovan was one of the main characters in this book but I really liked how they switched the role and made Noah the second main character. In my mind I thought if Gordon Korman was going to make a second book Donovan would be the main character but it was surprising how Noah got to be a main character in this book more than he was in Ungifted.
