EMOTIONALLY DYING. The whole book was just amazing and went from one thing to the next as an amazing speed. The ending killed me. Still hurting. But just amazing.

Alright, Rho seriously needs to stop trusting the wrong people. She FINALLY figured out who she loved so thank god for that. But her ignorance and inability to learn to stop trusting everyone is frustrating to no end! The end was a bit confusing but I think I understand what happened? All in all, its frustrating but pretty good.

(Minor spoilers ahead or not, I can’t tell.)
And this is the book where Romina puts herself on my list of deaths that have ruined me for the rest of my existence.
Book numero three continues with the adventures (tragedy, trauma, fight, etc. etc.) of Rhoma (Rho) Grace. The last time we saw (read) Rho she was dealing with the death of her best friend, she found her old school crush/adviser, she was given the title of Wandering Star, she and her brother were betrayed and lost their father, and of course, boy drama, because even in space, where there is a group of risers (The Marad) that want to do a whole lot of evil, there is time for a juicy love triangle. I am but only human and I am weak in the knees for dreamy boys, which I find it hilarious because I hate love triangles, go figure.
A lot of twists and turns have occurred in the life of Rho, and I am still trying very hard to wrap my head around this book. So many things I was not expecting, but others, oh boy I did.
All righty, let’s try and make a honest review out of this baby.
The Marad and the Master are still a big, big problem. But you don’t actually hear from them until basically the very end of the book, however, there is a new group (a political party), and although they are in a the early stages of forming this group, they have a strong following. This new group are uniting to make a better and new tomorrow. Which is supported by Rho’s friend, Nishi, she committed to this and she’s finding different ways of distracting herself from what happened with the love of her life, but since she’s in this group, everything seems legit. (Not going to get into more of this because I will definitely spoil the entire book, but you can already suspect what’s up with these people.)
Anywho, more twists and turns happen. Someone from Rho’s past comes back, (I almost choked on air when I read that part.) And of course, someone gets KILLED. Why?
Thank you, Romina...I am being sarcastic. I did not think I could suffer anymore, but apparently, your heart can still ache after being crushed to bits and pieces from the previous book, but you know, I’m fine.
Hysan Dax is forever a dream boat, and he is the type of guy I would fly round the zodiac. Okay, this has nothing to do with the book or review, I’m just simply stated the obvious; I just really love the guy.
Nevertheless, like any other book that I love, it leaves me hanging by a thread. I need more. Book numero cuatro, you need to be in my hands. I have questions, and those questions need answers.

Book 3 was even better. Not as quotable, but still some gems. I read fiction mostly by ebook the last couple years, but I've been on the wait list for ebooks 3 & 4 for almost a month. Sheesh. Got the print books 24 hours after requesting them. And who sez print is dead?

This was an amazing read and WHAT.THE.HECK.WITH.THAT.ENDING!?#?!?!
I really liked this book. We got to see a lot more of the political side of things. The story seemed really short regardless of how long it took me to finish it.I really need the next one...but its so far away

Review in Italian: https://lalibreriadij.wordpress.com/2017/05/09/black-moon/
I waited months to read this book. I have yet to understand if I'm stupid or mine is a tactic (obviously unplanned). I wait months to read a book that I know I will like then 1. I'll not have to wait too much for the sequel and 2. If I'll ever be in a reading slump or in an endless wait for a decent book I would surely come out of it.
Now, I'm not in a reading slump at this time so knowing I'll have to wait ONLY up to September to know how the series ends up makes me better! ^^
Let's talk about the plot: I will not reveal anything because there are too many beautiful and ugly things that happened but be aware that the surprises are behind every corner, or behind every chapter in this case and as far as I have been happy for the whole book, the end has destroyed me, not too much but it was definitely a shock.
Speaking of shocks, for the first part of the book I would have sobered Rho, not because she languishes and does not know who to trust or because she is manipulated like a trout floating in the oak immediately, but because up to half of the book she is still undecided between Mathias and Hysan ... I wanted to give her a shake and say, "Wake up and choose !!!!" If you've followed my previous reviews, you know which side I'm on, and seeing that Rho finally chooses and it is definitely the right course, despite the constant clutter she finds on her way, it's something that has made me appreciate the story even more.
I knew that there would be the return of a character I will not name, and when Rho finds herself in front of the person who thought she had lost long before, I know that I would have reacted in the same way. For all the situation with the Marad and Ophiucus and everything that happens I don't know what to expect. It is enough that there will not be other deads. Thank you.
Recommended? Yes. If you've already started this series you can not keep up, this book is definitely an essential step to understanding what's going to happen next and last (unfortunately). I hope it to arrive in Italy soon! ^^
Ps Film? Yes, I want it. Now.

En este libro nos encontramos con una Rho algo cambiada, mas madura, mas reflexiva, aunque aun sigue haciendo cosas similares a los anteriores libros sus pensamientos nos dan a entender que ya no es la joven del primer libro.
Aunque en este la historia es algo mas transitoria, es un libro en el que te cuenta y explica muchas cosas, creo que es muy necesario para el libro que le sigue el cual tengo ganas de leer por el final tan en tensión que nos encontramos y es que no sabemos que pasará hasta que leamos el siguiente.
