I finished this book around 7:00a. It's stayed with me all day. I can't say enough about it... but yet I can't say anything because everything is a "spoiler"! It's just so good! I don't want it to end but yet I do!! Off to the 3rd book...
I just lost my mind...
if I thought Nocte was overwhelming and full of secrets and plot twists, this is a hundred times worse
at first I didn't manage to connect with Calla but later on I started to understand her better but now the last two chapters... oh god, I still can't process it
thank godness I have Lux with me or else I would panic 😱😱😱

I'm not sure if mystery isn't my cup of tea, but I somehow know I do not hate it. This however, has been going on for so long I can no longer figure out which mystery I am trying to unravel. There are answers I didn't even know I had questions to. It was good, until it wasn't anymore.
I was not as much of a fan of this second installment in the trilogy as I was of the first. It was very confusing and hard to keep track of. I understand that we are taking a trip in the mind of a seriously damaged young girl, but the confusion turned me off, instead of pushing me to find the answers. The setting in this book is very cold and unimpressive. Whereas the first book felt ominous and kept you anxious the whole time, this one was just blah, no underlying feeling or emotion. What was most troubling to me was the transition between the books. The first book ends with a shocking reveal and you expect this book to continue from there, but instead it jumps to Calla and Dare travelling to Whitley. You are left wondering why they are there, when did they decide to that, did I miss a chapter of the book when that was explained? It is not explained anywhere and that feeling of confusion and abruptness stayed with me far into the book, adding to my frustration. I also didn't feel the heat and chemistry in this book that you feel in book 1.
The book gets better toward the end and ends with another big reveal, but you are still left with more questions than answers. I will read Lux, the third book, and I'm really hoping for something that ties all three books together. I need a "Nocte Trilogy for Dummies"!

What do I think about Verum by Miss Courtney Cole. WHAT DO I THINK?
Throughout the entire book I was mad with confusion, why? What? How? When? I had so many ever changing theories on very other chapter and I am going mad with rage on how long I have to wait for the final book.
I will admit I was slightly annoyed in her choppy repetitive sentences, but as I got to the ending it all made sense. It was all of a sudden so magically, brilliantly written I want to cry. Tear of joy, tears of sadness (tears of madness). I found my self even praying to the Book God that this prediction I feel is coming is not true,
I need book 3 like I need air at this point, I have so many questions that I need answers to, what a complete and total mind F$#k

After finishing this book, I'm now questioning my own sanity. My brain is fried, and I'm still confused about everything I just read. I need a day or so then plan to reread this. Ms. Cole is wickedly brillant!
some time later and I'm STILL trying to sort out my feelings on this book. It's good people...Courtney Cole is a genius, an evil one at that. Seriously. I'm curious what goes on inside her head.
I'm not even sure what I can say without giving anything away. In my opinion when you risk spoiling a plot point by saying pretty much...anything it proves what an amazing book you just read.
I will say this, if you thought Nocte was a mind bender just wait until you read Verum. Just when I thought I had answers...it turns out I don't. Just when I thought I had it figured out a new twist pulls the rug out from under me.
Can't wait for Lux.

Holy crap!!! Where does the truth starts and the lie ends? Finished the book with even more questions
I have so many contradicted feelings towards this book. I'm so confused and my mind has been literally fuck*d over and over again with this story. The secrets was supposed to be revealed and yet I still don't know or understand what's the final reality, if there is one that is.
I'm seriously wondering what the hell is gonna come out next. I have to give it to the author though, way to mess with our minds, it's so annoying and awesome at the same time!
The beginning confused me a little, I didn't get the point of the change of location in the story, and I thought I was missing some pieces of the book or the author messed up. I concluded that that this is just how the story rolls. Everything is so misterious and I was feeling the same thing I felt while reading the Mara Dyer's series, I didn't know what the hell was going on, no distinction of reality, of the sate of mind of the protagonists or even me!
And then there was this mixed signals in the romance part, because
And then the ending, makes me wonder so many things, and who is alive and who is dead? or am i dead? It drives me crazy and I can't wait for the next book and I need some answers ASAP!
JUST TELL ME WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON, I THINK I'M CRAZIER THAN ALL THESE CHARACTERS TOGETHER!!
