My god this book was nothing but pain. We didn’t get any plot until 70% in, and then almost none after. I guessed every “twist” way before it happened because this woman’s idea of foreshadowing is to beat you over the head with “hints”. Our main characters spent almost the entire book apart, and then when they got together all they did was fuck and talk about things we already know. This book made me want to tear my hair out from sheer boredom and frustration.

This could have been 200 pages shorter. It's sooooo slow and nothing really happens. Also, a lot of the same phrases are used over and over again. A decent editor could have made it so much better.

This book spent way too long in the first half hitting you over the head with Kolis and the angst only for all the pieces to unroll roughly as expected.

Review:
I finished this  and what a great way to start off where A Light in the Flame left off on a cliffhanger. The journey the characters are still going on, keeps me continuing on with the Blood and Ash/Flesh and Fire world and I cannot wait for the last book in this series to come our. It also continues to make me cry, laugh and feel anger at the main characters as well as the side characters actions, But like I said I love it so very much. Highly recommend both series if you want to either continue or start them.

This book is unlike the first two books in this series. It was difficult to read because the first half centers on sexual violence and abuse, but I think JLA tactfully represented the mental and physical impacts of it. I think this book is bridging the Blood and Ash series with this series, and I’m eager to see what unfolds next.
