This one didn't quite grip me as much as the first two books. Klune kind of goes off format and starts in the middle of a story, working back and then into the future so I spent about a quarter of the book being frustrated and confused. This is why I hate stories with amnesia. Klune's writing is stellar and you do catch up along with Robbie, but it just wasn't as enjoyable because of that. And, because of the end events, you don't even get all the answers. I hope that the final book ties up some things but since it takes place from yet another character's POV who is not with the pack, I don't have hopes for that. Still, this series is brilliant and has made me tear up or laugh out loud on several occasions, resulting in my having devoured all three 300+ page books in a week which is pretty speedy for me - and I only want more.

3.5 stars!!!

Knowing that this was going to be from ANOTHER POV when going into it really raised my enjoyment. It was really nice to follow Robbie through his struggles in the second book, but going into the details of why it worked so well for me would be a huge spoiler for book 2. I just love T.J. Klune's writing, he has a way of making the characters jump off the page and feel so real. I wish I was one of the people that this book made cry but it just didn't hurt me the way I wanted it to. The plot throughout this is so sad and heartbreaking and I was rooting for Robbie the whole time. I'm looking forward to seeing how the overarching plot of the series is going to wrap up in the final book!
