The series has had a bit of a face lift with BEAUTIFUL covers. I love all the covers but I wish I could have the kindle covers on physical books. They blew my mind.
This is a tough review to write. I am having a HUGE book hang over combined with a case of the feels.
The only real words coming in my brain right now consists of "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" and "WHYYYYYYY?!"
Everything else is heart ache and a feeling I have yet to decipher.
This series has become a fandom of mine. I am pretty obsessed with it.
I waited a LONG time for this book, but now that I have devoured it,(Twice in as many days) I know that every minute of the wait was worth it.
The series has gotten better with age. (and each book)
Book three was by far the strongest book of the series. The writing is amazing. I feel like the knife never really came out of my heart while reading. It just shifted with each new emotion.
I have grown SO attached to these characters that it kind of took me by surprise.
It's funny, because in the first book, I remember thinking the main character's name is going to bug me. Now here we are in book three and I am in pieces over his name. (Yeah, I may of gotten teary that's how powerful this book gets!)
The second book I was on the fence about Krystal and now I find myself pretty tore up about what she's going through. That's some pretty great character development to make that happen.
What I enjoyed most about this series and even more in this book, was the fact that my assumptions on where things would go, was always wrong. Usually one would expect things to get a bit predictable by the third book. With this series that is definitely not the case.
It's not predictable, but it is also not rushed. There are so many questions left to be answered but instead of leaving the reader impatient, it's more of a comfortable feeling because you know it's coming. The story line also doesn't get weak enough to give you time to really focus on things you're waiting for, or to get impatient.
Reading it, kept me hooked and pushing my tired eyes on to find out more. I love books that can surprise me and that book does this and more.
I was surprised by how little of Krystal we have seen at various times through out the series, but it never feels like she has gone. The author has mastered the art of keeping characters in the front of your mind, even when they are not present. (or in some cases, are dead. :( )
I can't think of an author that has been able to do that in the same way. But I love it. (Even when it is yanking at my heart strings.)
Re-awakening feels like it just might of been the most intense book of the series. Probably because it is so darn emotional. When you think you can feel no more, it hits you again.
I've read it twice and my heart still has not recovered.
Re-awakening has topped my favourite books of the year list, for this year. That's a no brainer. I have read it twice and I am already considering picking it up a third time as well as debating on re-reading the series again. (Yeah, see obsessed!)
I am having a hard time separating myself from this darn book, I swear we're lucky I am not sleeping with my Kindle App under my pillow at this point. ;) There are not many books that we can say that about. In fact I can count the books that we can. So that is a serious achievement.
This is a must read for all who like Fantasy, or who just love a really good book.
If you haven't started this book, or the series than you are missing out and I feel sorry for you.
This is a must read.
Another 5 star read, from one of my favourite authors.
