Reached Review

512 pages

After leaving Society and desperately searching for the Rising—and each other—Cassia and Ky have found what they were looking for, but at the cost of losing each other yet again: Cassia has been assigned to work for the Rising from within Society, while Ky has been stationed outside its borders. But nothing is as predicted, and all too soon the veil lifts and things shift once again.

Review:
This is definitely not the best novel in this series. This story is told from the points of view of Cassia, Ky, and Xander. All three of the main characters have grown quite a lot since the last novel and we see this in the different roles they perform in the Rising. I feel like there are a lot of confusing moments in this story that distract from the general storyline. There's a lot of things that just don't add up and that made me enjoy this story even less. I still think that there is a lot about this world that isn't generally explained. I did enjoy seeing how the whole love triangle unfolded, and a couple of surprises are thrown our way. However, I can't really recommend this novel unless you want a conclusion to this trilogy.
