I felt like this was my least favorite of the series, and the end was very abrupt. We waited through the whole book for that 'thing' to happen and we never actually see it occur, it drove me nuts!

Those stunning front covers alone are enough to make me want to read these books. After reading your review for Rise, I'm even more determined to start these Anna Carey books. <br /><br />I'm so glad that you found Rise to be a satisfactory ending to this series. It's a shame about the abrupt ending though - I just hate it when the author decides to end the book so suddenly, and like you, I start searching for the missing pages ;)<br /><br />Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful review (and very intriguing quote) with us, Andrea.

I have read so many really good ones that it is so easy for it to feel really cliche and bad. But I like that you mention that in this series no one is safe, that is really cool and I don't often get that feeling from books.

She never seems to think anything through! I'll probably get this one on audio soon just so I can finish it off, even though I didn't particularly like either of the previous two books. *sigh* I'm just a glutton for punishment, I guess. I do like the covers, though. :Pstarryeyedjenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15841350560201331032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3769483260772738867.post-26373123424580751722013-04-05T01:34:22.836-07:002013-04-05T01:34:22.836-07:00Ah!
