While I enjoy the series, this book just seemed like filler. Repetitive descriptions of people, relationships, and no real movement in the storyline.
Read the kindle version and without page numbers, thought I had more story to read at the end. Last 11% of the book was a collection of definitions and descriptions of people, places. Almost like this book was an introduction to those who have not read previous books in the series.

I loved this! That last chapter almost destroyed me! please don't leave ot ages for us to read the next one. The catch up part was a really good idea too.
Dammit KMM, you're killing me with these endings! But I still love this series.
I really liked this book, and the ending has me running to the next book as we speak. Giving this four stars just because it wasn’t as flawless as a few of the others in the series.
The biggest development in this book, IMO, is Danni. I wasn’t 100% fulfilled in the last book where I mentioned that I wanted to see her story from the silvers play out a little bit…and this book did just that. Moning does not disappoint.
A huge development that I loved was that Dani realized that life went on without her, even though she was only gone for a few weeks. Now that she’s older and more mature from the past five years, she’s realizing that she was not the center of everyone else’s world. This is a huge leap from the previous “Mega the Superhero”.

3.5 stars. Took me a while to finish this one. It was kinda boring. The end was really good though so of course I will have to read the next one.
I liked this latest instalment but it just wasn't long enough. It felt like half a book, and I really feel that Karen is dragging out this series.
There really are no words. I love these books so much and am going to have a hard year waiting for the final chapter in the Fever world. KMM you are the best!

-----------------------------------
-----------------------------------
SUMMARY: (SPOILER WARNING)
Mac is trying to navigate her new melding with the Sinsar Dubh while trying to figure out how to stop being invisible and how to utilize the internal book to stop the black holes that have been popping up around the city. She also has been seeing her dead sister Alina around town and is trying to determine what kind of trick is going on there.
Ryodan and Barrons are trying to help Dageus through his transition into the beast they turned him into. While Christian is trying to find him (they don’t tell him about Dageus at first) because he knows the body they gave him isn’t his uncle.
Enemies abound as a mysterious news outlet known as WeCare has been trying to slander Mac and Jada, causing humans to try and kill them. And speaking of enemies, a thawed (but still trapped) Cruce (formally V’lane) is working with the roach god thing to escape and take over.
Mac and the gang work together to try to take out enemies and restore the world that seems to be crumbling around them.

REVIEW:
It took me forever to finally get around to reading this book (and to get all the way through it) because, while I liked Burned better than Iced, it’s still is SO DIFFERENT from the first five books. The vibe is different, they are slower paced, have more POVs, and just don’t have that magical element that the first five books had.
This wasn’t terrible, but it was terribly slow paced. They’re all kind of piddling around talking about what to do next but not actually doing anything.
As an example, they talk about the black holes showing up and then say “yeah, we need to do something about that”, and then…nothing. Mac finds a music box that she believes might contain the Song of Making (which is what they believe they need to shut the black holes) and for some reason doesn’t share this with anyone.
Another example, they suspect Cruce might be breaking free from his prison and yet don’t bother checking it out to make sure he’s still secured.
It just felt like a lot of waiting around for the big event to finally happen at the end of the book. Until then, virtually nothing happens plot-wise. Just a lot of internal turmoil among the various characters.
There were things I did like about the book:
- I like they they are all kind of sort of (reluctantly) working together as a team in this one. They all seem less divided in this one (at least by the end).
- I like that Jada seems to be softening a bit.
- I like the Lor and Jo side story. Lor is hilarious and good comic relief. And I like the chemistry between him and Jo.
- I like that Christian is less creepy and seeming to come into his own. I like that his love interest in Dani seems to have waned. I didn’t see them together. But I do really hope he gets a HEA.
- I loved Mac and Barrons. Love them together and love that they are firmly together now (even if they refuse to label it).
There are some other things that were confusing and off-putting though. Like:
- The POV shifts between first person and third person frequently. And it’s not like it’s just Mac’s POV being first person and everyone else in third, sometimes the others (like Christian) are in first person too. It’s very disorienting to keep switching. And sloppy.
- Speaking of POVs, there is a random Seelie Queen POV that seemed out of place. Also the prologue is from a mysterious POV and we are never told who it is. Was it a Seeker? Was it the Sinsar Dubh? So confusing.
- Mac mentions one of the Nine being killed by an Unseelie Princess. I don’t remember this happening. Was that in another book? Really confusing.
- Speaking of The Nine, who are the others? We’ve only really met four of them.
- What is up with Kat and Kasteo? They weren’t in this book at all but mentioned as still being locked beneath Chester’s. Why? I don’t get this.
- Why did she take the cuff off? This just seemed so stupid to me.
Overall the book was very slow and didn’t really drive the plot forward very much for being so long. I really want to finish out this series, but these later books are disappointing compared to the first five books. I will wait to read the next one (hopefully not another whole year).

I’m kind of bored with the storyline in this series honestly but with that ending and all the time I’ve put into reading books 1-7 I have to see how this plays out
