OH MY GOD I NEED BOOK 3 RIGHT NOW
I seriously can't even form the right words to describe how I'm feeling right now. Especially after the recent information Sarah has released about Book 3. This book is a roller coaster of questioning what is truly good and what is truly bad. It makes the reader wonder just how far someone should go for those they love and/or the greater good. It acknowledges the weaknesses of the characters by exploiting those weakness and being so realistic. Just the idea of what will happen in Book 3 has my mind spinning in a maelstrom of theories.
I've learned to always look between every word and to think outside the box no matter how outrageous the thought is when it comes to Sarah's writing. Although I did spoil quite a bit of the end for myself, I never would have been able to predict half of the plot twists in this book.
