4.25 out of 5 ☆’s.

“It was time for the King and his army to fall. And the Vega Queens to rise.”

ੈ✩‧₊˚

To quote The Script: “I’m still alive, but I’m barely breathing.”

If I’m being honest — I don’t know if I have enough emotional energy in me to continue the series…

(I will be starting ”Heartless Sky” soon regardless, though, because if I take a break now then I just know that I will never gather up the courage to read it…)

ੈ✩‧₊˚

Wish me luck! ♡

Emotional Damage! Omg this book ripped me apart and put me back together multiple times! It was one hell of a ride but i loved every minute. I must say there was some great character development, especially with Seth, Max and Darius. I’m afraid to start the next book but also excited!

I never read a series where i tried to expect to worse out of fear for being ripped apart by a character death until this one! Literally no one is safe! My heart can’t take it!

Love this series so much. Super glad that it wasn't as depressing as the last couple books! I have no other works for this book other than the fact that I loved every page of it.

I loved this book.
It was wholesome, it was hilarious, it was sad, it was heartbreaking.
I expected the ending to be much sadder than it actually was.

we saw a vision of Darius dying in one year when he sacrifices himself for Tory and his friends, which is sad of course, but that won’t hit me until it actually happens?

I loved the bonding of the Heirs with the twins this book. It started off heartbreaking and irritating, but after 20%, it picks back up again.
It could have been 100 or so pages shorter and the pacing is so bizarre that it’s funny, but damn do these sisters know how to write intense scenes!? And I personally love this world, so additional, albeit unnecessary pages I enjoyed.

the premise for book 7 sounds so exciting. Tory and Darius able to be together for a year, Tory free of the shadows and her bond, all of them on the run? I can sense more wholesome, bonding moments and equally badass ones incoming
