'Marianne and Mark', the Sequel

i found someone selling both marianne dreams and marianne and mark together on ebay and i was able to win them for about 30 dollars total, so i'm in the process of reading marianne and mark right now. So far it's about marianne visiting her aunt and uncle in Brighton and she is very lonely and sorta depressed. She is 15 now, and at first there is very little connection made to the original book or what happened, but then she goes to see a psychic with some friends and the psychic talks about how she was sick for a long time, and how marianne has special abilities, and one of them is the ability to dream, and marianne is kind of freaked out about all this, and the psychic talks about how when she was sick she found support and help from other people, and how she helped someone too, so there have been allusions to mark, but no actual mention of him, by anyone yet. Marianne just saw the psychic a second time and she talked about how marianne had found comfort at a lighthouse, and how she was going to meet a special friend, or a boy soon, but somehow she has already met this person.........oh, also marianne has become intrigued by the occult, and the psychic tells her she has abilities, like the psychic herself, but she is too young to use them, and they could be dangerous........i'm about 100 pages into it, it's 232 pages total. So far no mark, but i'm sure he'll show up soon somehow. It's interesting how Catherine storr is sort of explaining what happened in the first book by showing that Marianne has some psychic abilities, which might explain her ability to connect to mark in the dream world. Anyway, i'll post the rest when i finish reading it, sorry if my summary is not so great..........
