She would say for example, "he wrapped her into a hug, his hands cupping her face" when he was actually a dragon. Like how she didn't use dragon anatomy (is that the sciency word for it?). I realize they are the same on the inside and their emotions and all that are the same. Jordan was writing scenes with any of the characters in their dragon forms, I couldn't distinguish whether they were actually human or dragon.

I really loved the other books in this series but his one just seemed, I don't know. I'm actually going with a 3.5 on this one mainly just for one reason. Loyalties are tested and sacrifices made in the explosive conclusion to Sophie Jordan's Firelight trilogy." But what Jacinda never could have foreseen is that escaping would be only the beginning. As she learns more about her captors, she realizes that even if Will and Cassian can carry out their part of the plan, there's no guarantee they'll all make it out alive. The only way Jacinda can reach Miram is by posing as a prisoner herself, though once she assumes that disguise, things quickly spiral out of her control. Yet to do so she will have to venture deep into the heart of enemy territory. Weighed down by guilt, Jacinda knows she must rescue her to set things right. When she ran away with Will, it ended in disaster, with Cassian's sister, Miram, captured. But she resisted long before she fell in love with Will-a human and, worse, a hunter. "Jacinda was supposed to bond with Cassian, the "prince" of their pride.

It shows that life experiences are all part of growing up and these children didn't have those.Īmazon Goodreads This is the third book in trilogy by Sophie Jordan. How the children are actually 80 something years old and yet they still are children.

Oh and one more thing that I loved! I loved the idea that Miss Peregrine brought up. who knows? Well obviously the people who've read it but I haven't gotten that far yet! I think that could have been elaborated on. I was REALLY confused when the whole 'time travel' thing was explained (jumping from loop to loop). I suppose it's really two reasons actually. I would often have to go back and reread all the room descriptions to try and form a picture. I found it hard to picture the scenery (obviously the stuff that isn't in the pictures). I don't know HOW the author thought of this but I'm glad he did!Īfter hearing that little speil, you're all probably wondering why the heck I didn't give this book 5 stars. but you know what I mean.Īlso, I love this idea of peculiar children living in loops of time. That made me feel like I could travel where the main character did and everything would be there! Well not there because of the ending. One of my favorite things about this book is how the author used REAL pictures and integrated them into the story. Thrust into the Everwild to search for her talisman, Willow must face horrors beyond imaginable and come to terms with who she is while suppressing feelings for the Head Warlock’s son, Declan, who was unwillingly sent to the Everwild with her.Ok can I just say how long it's been since I've read the world "peculiar"? I just love that word :) After visiting a Seeker, Willow learns that Hekate has hidden her talisman deep in the heart of the Everwild, a dark forest filled with evil and horrifying creatures, a place that no one should enter willingly. To make matters worse, Hekate has captured the sisters of her Coven and locked them in a box of souls. Hekate can only take Willow’s power by extracting it from her, which will ultimately end her life. What was supposed to be the best day of her life has now become a horrible nightmare after discovering she was born with a rare healing power, one that has caught the attention of Hekate, Queen of the Witches. Sixteen year old Willow Rose thought she was just an average first degree witch until everything changed the night of her talisman ceremony.
