Darkest Before Dawn

SPOILER ALERT! I cried while reading eighty percent of this book. Maya Banks made Honor's plight very real and heart-wrenching. I have never skipped over a love scene in a book until now - it felt wrong to read it - as if it did not belong. This book was more about a woman's survival than it was a love story. I have found that as the KGI Series has grown so has the emotional depth of the characters. I found the ending too simplistic for the trauma the reader and Honor goes through. If you are looking for a romance, this is NOT it. This is an amazing story of a woman who survives and conquers her fears while retaining who she is (even in her darkest hour she is still herself). As I said earlier, I cried for eighty percent of this book. It might actually take me a couple of more days to actually say whether I liked it or not, but I did like Honor.
