1.0

I'm so angry with this series, it had so much potential. The first one was only okay, but I read the second one in case, but it got worse. I forced myself through this one, because I need to know the endings of series, but this is the worse YA series I have ever read.

"There’s saving Ren, even if it incurs Shay’s wrath." What Calla and Shay have is not a romance. It's basically borderline abuse, to the point where Shay would rather have a person DIE than Calla save him and then have to deal with the possibility of Calla choosing Ren over him. He's immature, bland and selfish and I really hated him throughout this whole book.

The 'war' that all these creatures had been trained for lasted like 40 minutes? And the fact that she killed Ren of just so Calla and Shay could be together without any complications was pathetic and an easy way out. Everything about this book was pathetic.
