Everything comes to a head in this book!
Unexpected allies and surprising betrayals have been occurring since the last book, and it continues here in "Vivid Avowed." After encountering death and tragedy wherever she seems to go then being forced to go on the run, Eve decides enough is enough and makes way for an even playing field to finally go up against her biological father.
It's not often you read a book where characters you wanted to hate or dislike so much early on redeem themselves enough for you to change your mind about them, but Kaydence Snow manages to do it not once, but twice (maybe three times, depending how you feel about a particular character). I won't reveal who, but there was one person I didn't think would be able to win me over enough to forgive them for all they did, but albeit slowly, I caved.
By the time I finished this book, despite the author ending it on a bit of a high note, I can't help but sit back and think about lives lost. They weren't just nameless people or characters briefly mentioned. They had stories, lives, and personalities. Kaydence Snow made you get to know them, even if just a little bit. It's not often I'll grieve fictional characters, but this is a serious where I'm doing just that.
Thanks for the amazing series and all of the feelings!
