After that, it started to pick up and then the plot moved faster and faster.

I thought it was used pretty well to fast forward some events, though the book still ended up being really long. I’m not really complaining about it, but the first 200 pages 0r so dragged for me. In this novel, there’s a point of view from the Borderlands, which is a sort of misty limbo filled with glimpses of moments in time. “Her words wound and crush, and cause more pain than most because there’s always some truth in what she says.” All of this with the end of the world looming. They all made mistakes or made tough decisions, but I always understood their motivations, even if I didn’t always agree with them. I especially appreciated the fall outs between the girls, as it brought a new depth to their friendship and individual personalities.

This book was much darker and the girls had to confront a lot of hardships, like loss, manipulation, power, and abusers. With the apocalypse right around the corner, every little decision was important, alliances had to be formed, and the girls’ friendship and lives in general had their ups and downs. The stakes were definitely higher in this book. So I’m giving it all 5 stars and know that I’ll carry the characters with me for a long time. It started of slow, it was probably longer than necessary, and there were unecessary moments here and there, but I was so involved in the plot and the girls’s lives that I didn’t mind. – REVIEW FOR THE CIRCLE (#1) AND FIRE (#2) –Ī fantastic ending for a great trilogy.
