REVIEW:
*WARNING:There may be some spoilers*
First of all I would like to tell you that Water has always been my most favorite element.If I could choose any element to have power over,I would choose Water.As such,I was super excited to read this book,especially after the ending of Earth's End.I started with very high hopes that Miss Kova would do justice to this element as well and I was not disappointed.Although it did make me feel unbearably sad.I'd say this was one of the most saddest book I've ever read.It made me cry.
Vhalla, I thought made very idiotic choices in this book,a lot of pain could have been avoided if she had used better judgement.But I suppose that is what made this book realistic as no one is perfect.All I can say is that Elise Kova is certainly a master of surprises.I really did NOT expect whatever happened to happen.I'm thinking the author must revel in tormenting us so much.A death of a much beloved character was a sore point,I want to ask WHYY????? :(
So much was revealed,it seems like in every book something vital comes to light and all the pieces start to fit together.I just know that this is one book which I will be thinking about for a while.I had to close my eyes and take deep breathe after the end of it.Now I really can't wait for the last book but while I'm waiting,I need to go and read a very very very happy book to control my emotions and maybe forget about this one for a while.Despite all the despair,I do not regret reading it and this series has fast become one of my most favorite books EVER.
