I don't know. I mean, I really don't know what my thoughts on this book even are. Let's see.

1. As someone that got to listen to some of the audiobook as well as read it, the audiobook is better. Maybe a whole star better. (As I read the ebook mostly, I rated it for the ebook.)

2. I wonder if I liked the second book as much as I did because it was an audiobook. It was either that or because I like and find the character of Aiden more interesting than Tenn.

3. I really dislike Tenn. A lot. I wonder why I ever thought I liked him in the first book.

4. I'm not a fan of the resolution.

5. Nor am I really a fan of the writing style, I've realized.

6. Behind the typical teen drama, there is an interesting story. Pity it's concealed by concern over who is sleeping with whom and hyperbolic, sweeping declarations akin to ‘I will love you my entire life as I have loved you since we first met - all of ten days ago' and ‘I thought I would always hate you as I have since we first met - three days ago.'

7. The entire trilogy, apparently, takes place in, like a month. Maybe. At the most.

8. There were several ‘events' that could have/should have had longer lasting effects and they didn't. Example: Aiden lost part of more than one finger. It never effected anything he did. Ever. How about the whole magic thing with Kianna? And the way she just gets over it and becomes attuned and she never has any problems? After how much she hates magic?

I just...the whole series was up and down, back and forth with me and this book...was somewhat disappointing.
