I liked this one a lot, but I felt a little lost early on since it's been a while since I read the previous book. It took me a while to get back up to speed.

This was a really good book. I enjoyed reading this book. It didn't ensnare me as quickly as the others but still good.

I have really enjoyed getting to know Lex. She loves fiercely and will do anything to protect her family, which she proves time and time again. I love how bad-ass she is and I love watching her overcome the obstacles and dangers that have been thrown at her in each installment of the Boundary Magic series.

In BOUNDARY BORN she does more of what she does best, saving the day! There is ton of action as she fights to save herself and her friends from a foe she never saw coming. Her relationship with Quinn is still pretty present and growing. One thing that I missed in BOUNDARY BORN though was Charlie. We don't 'see' her once. I am not really sure what else I can say about BOUNDARY BORN without giving away spoilers so I will leave my review at that.

I'm not sure if the Boundary Magic series is over or not. Olson states that she is taking some time off for a bit to work on other things. I really hope that it doesn't take long because there is SO much more Lex and friends to be had. I will miss them all until I see them again.

I'm not sure if it's just because I've now had a little more time with the series, but I became more invested in the characters in this installment. Between that and the fact that the Big Quest has been revealed, I'm enthusiastic about the next book to be released.

I liked this one more than the previous 2 installments. There were a lot of strong characters and less romance (which I still don't buy the chemistry between Quinn and Lex at all). I do hate that poor Maven has been treated so badly, especially since she's allegedly such a strong vampire.

This is definitely the best of the trilogy. The plot is so good. We get so many answers and additional info which doesn't leave us as much in the dark. There is character growth, relationship growth, and over-arching story development. Though there are some issues with the writing, I did not want or feel the urge to get skip much of the book. This just had so much weight, and I feel it could've been a little longer the further wrap up some things but overall, this is just well done.

Spoiler Quinn and Lex, their growth, their relationship, I just love how it came together and worked out at the end.

Really good book. Great plot, characters that are well done and great world building.

Worst part is having to wait for the next one.

Wow

Lots of revealed character history and backstory. Interesting new types of magic and equally interesting character development. A great read.
