I’m in love Kenji Kishimoto, and I love Aaron and Juliette. I love both of their character character development and how Juliette and Kenji have become rlly good best friends. I’m loving watching Juliettes confidence grow and the writing of this book was amazing. Adam is an asshole. This is my fav of the series so far.

Ignite Me was a bit disappointing when compared to Unravel Me.

The character development was good for Juliette, Warner and Kenji; however, Adam's character went downhill and Castle's character faded out. I hope in the next book, we see Castle's strength again and Adam not being a toxic human being.

Overall, Ignite Me had a lot of build-up for a very rushed and disappointing ending. The ending lacked something; it needed more depth. Many questions were left unanswered; for a book that was supposedly the last in the trilogy.
