fast-paced

 Yeah, wow, this book was so fantastic, and I need to read more now! 

"Morganville a small town in Texas. Its ordinary, in most ways, but the thing is, other are these - well, let's not be shy about it. Vampires. They own it. They rule it. And when there is trouble, there's the residents of the Glass House."

Now let me cut to the chase... Claire Danvers and Shane Collins. Now I know Morganville is not the most romantic town when there are vampires and the most immediate threat, the draug. But I'll have Shane Collins any day. Their love is truly spectacular. As it grows and develops into the constant flow of Rachel's novels, it just astounds me. I wonder How will it end? Will they get married, have the perfect life ahead of them, have the life that they each deserve. Mr and Mrs Collins?

"Promise me you’ll marry me. Not now. Someday. Because I need to know.”
Claire felt a flutter inside, like a bird trying to fly, and a rush of heat that made her dizzy. And something else, something fragile as a soap bubble, and just as beautiful. Joy, in the middle of all this horror and heartbreak.

“Yes,” she whispered back. “I promise.”

I fall in love deeply when you are sucked into the magical moments of the Claire and Shane's relationship. Despite their character flaws within the novel... Shane's over-protectiveness, his impulsive and irrational need and the perfect profile of Moragnville's Warrior. Yet at heart he is a Teddy bear ("Bite me" springs to mind), he tends not to show his emotional side as it wounds his alter ego! At times Shane conveys a very humorous side, that makes you feel like a love struck teenager. Claire has become the living proof that Einstein and a Heroine can live in Morganville. People do not take lightly since she has been in a relationship. You could say that's he has inherited some of Shane's Ruth fullness and strength. However like any relationship her flaw, is her irrational behaviour when its at the expense of a love one. Her beliefs and strength in fighting has made her a very influential and inspiring protagonist.

Morganville will not stay quiet for long after the death of Bishop. The Draug, risen from Greek Mythology, and the only piece of advice given is to Run... But Claire Danvers and friends will not stay too far from the action when the one the Master Draug is interested in Claire. With the Founder's authority non-existent; Michael, Shane and Eve will have protect and guard themselves for the oncoming storm.

What disappoints me is that I didn't get to read this book sooner. What prevented me? I don't know. But one thing I would say, Don't Delay and Read this Series! Its beyond Awesome!

Not sure 'i'm going to carry on with this series think that ive out grown it now :( It was fun whilst itlasted.

It’s not just Claire and her friends who are in danger but the vampires as well. I cried at a certain part, wanting to hug Shane so much. He didn’t deserve to have that happen to him AGAIN. However, I loved the ending. It just proves that as long as Michael, Eve, Shane and Claire stick together nothing can get in their way. I love Myrin throughout all these books so far, I just can’t stop laughing 😊 x

Original past me rating was 4 starts, and present me is keeping that number!

This was such an improvement over the last novel, oh my god. The plot is more intriguing, the characters are in better places, everyone's relationships are a little more stable, and the conflict is actually super compelling and well developed - maybe with the exception of Amelie refusing to explain anything about what's going on. There is also one H U G E twist regarding Claire that amps up the tension and sadness in a way that hasn't been seen in the series since Sam's death. Very entertaining read \o/

I LOVED this! i finished it in a day because it was so captivating as usual. When i first read the title, i thought it might be eve's last breath since she is marrying Michael. But how wrong was i!
This book lived up to my expectation and fulfilled my craving for Morganville. Thought I didn't really care for the different opinions of the characters; i've always liked Claire's opinion.
There were times I felt like screaming and crying because my favorite character died but i loved what she did in the end.

I connect with this books in level I thought impossible of accomplish.
Deeply moving and great.
The best so far.

Bit of a slow start, but then it got really good later on

I'm just frustrated. Is this series still going?? I keeping thinking it will change, or end, or something will actually happen that they can't bounce back from but it never ever does. ever!

Vayy ağlattı be. :D

Yazarın macerayı tek kitapta bitirmemesi beni oldukça şaşırttı. Konuyu yarım bırakmak Rachel Caine'den çok Jennifer Armentrout'un işidir genelde.

Last Breath, kitabın büyük kısmında klasik Morganville kitabıydı. Sonra düşman kendini belli edince gelişen olaylar gerçekten orijinaldi. Kitabın başlarında kahramanların sorunları falan biraz sönüktü bence. Eve'in evlencem diye tutturması sinirlerimi bozdu. Yakışmadı Eve. Kitabı bu kadar geç bitirmemi de kitabın ortasına gelene kadar olayların yavaş ilerlemesine bağlıyorum.
