Mini Reviews: Sequel edition

Hey everyone! Today I’m bringing to you a trio of mini reviews. Since these are continuations of series, I won’t be posting the synopsis of the books. All three of these were emotional reads for me for different reasons and in different ways. So let’s get started!

The first book is Beautiful Darkness by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl. This is the sequel to Beautiful Creatures and oh boy. My poor baby Ethan had a really rough time during this book. This book was emotional for me because of the characters. Especially Ethan. I could truly feel his emotions like they were my own. Plus I love Lena, but OMG did she make me so mad this book. The way this book ended, I’m so excited to get to Beautiful Chaos.

Next is Allegiant by Veronica Roth. This has been a long time coming. I started this series when the first movie came out. I actually read Divergent and Insurgent twice and watched both movies, but for some reason I never finished the series. Well I corrected that last month. Why did no one warn me I would ugly cry?? I mean I knew what would happen, but not how and omg I cried so hard. Then the author had the nerve to deal me another emotional gut punch. Whyyy?? I literally just laid there after reading trying to get myself together.

Finally we have The Rose Society by Marie Lu. My recent finish and man was this darker than I was expecting. This is the sequel to The Young Elites, and that book had multiple moments where my feelings got all kinds of ways. Well this delivered on that and then some. Adelina’s gradual descent had me on edge the entire book, and the very last chapter had me like 😳 even after I closed the book. I literally just sat there for a few minutes to gather my thoughts. I can’t wait to pick up The Midnight Star.

This is why I love reading. Especially being a character driven person. I get so emotionally invested and it puts me into the story so much more. I can’t wait to see what the next book is that makes me feel this way. Happy reading everyone 💚
