Book Review:
You are not ready for this.
Honestly, this book consumed me from the moment I picked it up. This is Garber’s best writing, best romance, best plot, best everything.
Garber knew what we wanted and what we needed, and she served it to us on a rose gold platter.
Book Plot:
WOW
I was blown out of the water reading this book.
The plot seemed a bit predictable at first, but wow it took me for some loops.
We learn so much more about the lore of the story. We get more characters. Hearing more stories about the Great North made this universe that much more believable and real.
Book Characters:
The two main characters, Evangeline and Jacks, are my favorite characters. This book makes their characters 30000% times better and made me fall in love with each of them more.
First, Evangeline goes through so many trials, and she seems to become stronger with each page. Similarly, Jacks becomes more four-dimensional. I love his arc throughout the story. Readers get to see a softer and more caring side to him.
Book Romance:
Okay, okay, I know I said no spoilers, but this might be a bit of a spoiler. There is some romantic tension in this book, and it is AMAZING!
That is all I should say about that.
Quality of Writing:
In previous novels, I have always felt Garber’s writing to be a bit weak. She really impressed me with this book though.
Descriptions of the setting are more solid and descriptive. Similarly, the dialogue feels so much more genuine. Writing-wise, Garber is not going to be the next great novelist, but it makes up for that in plot!
I cannot wait to get my hands on the hardcover I ordered.
