Destiny Rising by Siobhan Davis

4.0

This is the third and final installment to the True Calling series by Siobhan Davis. I was very kindly given all three books as arcs to read and review. You can see my other reviews for the first two below
True Calling
Beyond Reach

First off, these covers are amazing! They are SO beautiful!

Spoiler Alert!

Siobhan Davis writes this amazing dystopian novel with just a little bit of everything you want, action, love, friendships, and sadly loss. She does this perfectly in this page-turner series. I found myself up rather late at night just wanting to get a couple more pages in until my eyes were literally falling out of my head, or I would be thinking about what happened or what was going to happen when I should have been studying for class.

This book picks up right where we left off on the second one with the unknowns of what is happening on Novo and on earth, who to trust and just who is Ariana going to pick? A major point in the books is the love triangle between Ari, Cal, and Zane. I, by the way, am team Zane all the way. But not only are we dealing with a love triangle with so much history, Ari is pregnant as well - with Cal's baby or....?

Sometimes I felt like America Singer from The Selection and Ariana were the same in the way they just couldn't make up their mind on who they wanted. It was such an emotional rollercoaster, one minute I was happy with what was happening and the next I was trying to figure out whyyy, why Ari, WHY. I sadly didn't get what I wanted for the future of Zariana, but that is ok.

There were so many gasp-worthy parts in the book and it really came down to not being able to trust anyone because of what happened first on Novo, then with Clementia, and so many secrets coming to the surface, you never really knew who to trust.

I did enjoy that there was a *four years later* part at the end of the book to completely wrap things up, I just wish that Ari had picked the other guy instead :( This in turn made a little upset with the ending although it was a great ending just not the people I wanted together haha.
