linzthebookworm's review against another edition
3.0
I enjoyed Beautiful Redemption, but compared to the other books in the series it fell short for me. It was very obvious everything that was happening was to give the series a complete ending. I do appreciate it having a complete ending and not leaving the potential for other books, however most of it was a very long and boring journey for Ethan. I found that the big fight scene with Abraham was very oddly written and just seemed very out of place to me.

I had a bit trouble at the beginning of the book because of Ethan being dead. The first chapter or two I had to really focus on the book but after that it was easy to read and I really liked it. It was a nice (tho also really sad) ending to this lovely serie of books.

I seriously give up on this series. Beautiful Creatures was dragged out, Beautiful Darkness was amazing and Beautiful Chaos was a complete and utter mess. The 100 and so pages I have read aren't exciting and Ethan is such a boring protagonist.

O...mijn God...wat een prachtig laatste boek!! Deel 1 van deze serie was geweldig en was binnen 1 dag uit, deel 2 was bizar maar fascinerend, deel 3 voorspelbaar maar prachtig, maar deel 4...deel 4 was alles! Het was bizar, maar toch logisch, fascinerend en aangrijpend, het einde was voorspelbaar, maar de weg ernaartoe was prachtig. (Bijna) alle puzzelstukjes zijn op hun plek gevallen, en die paar die nog op hun plek moeten vallen heb ik zelf op hun plek gelegd. De personages zijn goed uitgewerkt, de relaties tussen de personages zijn goed uitgewerkt, de karakters 3-dimensionaal, de gebeurtenissen doordacht en gedetailleerd. Over alles is nagedacht...alles klopt...alles is zoals het hoort te zijn en ik geloof ieder woord van wat er geschreven stond. Dit laatste boek is alles waar ik op gehoopt had en meer...
En nu maar wachten op de film in februari!

I think that the correct rating for this book is 3.5 stars
It took me forever to listen to this audiobook, even though it is the shortest of the 4. Why? Well, for one we get chapters from Lena's POV and I just don't really care about her whatsoever. I really like Ethan but her? Not really, no. I listened to this whilst at work, and I found myself (for a couple of weeks) not wanting to pick up the story.
However, once I did I really enjoyed it! I love Ethan and I love how the story wraps up. This is definitely a great way to conclude a four-book series. That I must confess. I liked where this story took us and how things all wrapped together over the 4 books. I am glad I finally decided to finish this series, and my advice to anyone who wants to give it a go, is to audiobook it.

I found that this book was very entertaining I ways that I don't feel like explaining. Xavier was a great character and I really enjoyed the scenes that included him. I am a little on the edge of if I liked that they created a point of view from Lena, I enjoyed reading from Ethan's point of view. It really upset me that the 4th book was so much shorter than the first.(Beautiful Creatures= around 600, while Beautiful Redemption was only 450 pages) Overall I liked the book but it didn't engage like I had hoped that it would.

Loved this one. Tied up all of the loose ends. Great end to a great series. Though I have seen that there were a few more books written after this one.

Oh my gosh!
Sooo good!!!
I just was wanting to see more Lena and Ethan at the end...
I think they should, just for the heck of it, write some kind of novella for it. I just can't...I need more Lena and Ethan!!!

SPOILERS FOR BOOKS 1, 2 and 3!!!
The only thing I can say about this book is: WOW. BEAUTIFUL REDEMPTION picks up right after where BEAUTIFUL CHAOS left off with that heart-renching ending when Ethan sacrificed himself to save the world. Now, Ethan is in the Otherworld with....guess who?....HIS MOTHER! The woman we've been hearing SOO much about, and now, we finally get to meet her! I like Lila Jane Evers Wate a lot!
This book was split into three "books." Book 1 was from Ethan's POV and then Book 2 was from Lena's POV, which is her responding to Ethan's message he sent to her. I liked being inside of Lena's head, but....I have ONE bone to pick....she didn't talk about ANY of her emotions, nor did she SHOW any of them. That was probably the most annoying part about this book. I got over it, but, still...she just lost the love of her life...c'mon!
Book 3 is from Ethan's POV again, and I think I liked him even more. He made a new friend, and he also stood up to a very bad person who shall not be named...read the book if you want to find out!
I have seen some reviews where people are saying that the book was slow as hell, but I thought it had perfect pacing throughout. Within the first 150 pages, we learn Ethan's dangerous mission. Either way, I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED (did I mention LOVED) this book! I definitely recommend this book (and series) to anyone who likes Paranormal Romance or just plain old YA.
One thing I'm still getting over is that this is the LAST BOOK in the series... :'( I love(d) this series...definitely worthy of reading over and over and over again!
