Sisters of Isis 2: Divine One

Meri has a crush on Abdel. She also finds out her mother apparently knows Abdel, and doesn't like him. Some reporter named Stanley knows about the cult and seems to be threatening Meri's mother.

A girl named Michelle hates Meri. She's going to have a party at a place called the Jackal, an obviously trap, and she invites Meri. All three girls meet during a major thunderstorm which seems unnatural in its origins.

There's also an evil being named Apep that is out to steal the souls of the girls. The girls agree to go to a party at the new club (which is somewhat unrealistic, since it's named the Jackal and is so obviously a trap. If they know in advance it's a trap, why go in through the main entrance? Why not sneak in, and try and find the trap and deal with it? Also, even though they have some magical abilities, they completely ignore the physical; none of them are carrying any forms of weapons at all. If this had been a real situation, they never would have made it through the first book, much less any more.)

Meri runs off alone (yep, really smart thing to do) and Apep attacks. The attack fails (of course.) Later she reads about a new place called the Anubis spa opening up (are any of them ever going to wise up?) Later, they kill Apep but, of course, Apep regenerates and is bigger and stronger than before.

Their answer to controlling the evil Apep is to summon an even more evil god, thinking that, once he's done their bidding, they can bind him elsewhere.

Right.

Anyhow, they all have to face Apep again, this time in his own lair, as they try to prevent him from entering our reality again.

The second book in the series is terrible. It's like any sense of logic had to be left out of the book. Deus ex machina concepts are used freely. This is becoming a series which is almost a parody of better-done series. Hopefully, the third volume will be an improvement, although I don't have a whole lot of hope that it will.
