There's a lot going on in this book ... but overall, not much actually gets done.

Mac is still struggling with the book. The gang is still adjusting to the new Dani/Jada, with much more success than the previous book.

Mac/Barrons ... While I love these two, their story has been told ... there was a whole lot of recaping previous issues that I thought were resolved.

Lor/Jo ... I really love this pairing. Lor always makes me laugh. He's such a cave man ... but I love Jo's surprise at finding there's more to her cave man :)

Rhyodan ... that man is IMPRESSIVE. I've liked this character from his first introduction. He's a master at manipulation and chess. I have to say though, his attention to Dani may have caused severe chinks in his master plan. It's about to hit the fan, ya'll.

The Jada/Dani - Mac scene at the end of the book had me in tears. What Dani/Jada has gone through in her short life is staggering.

I need the next book NOW!

This series is being dragged out too much. Book 5 was the best in my opinion. Books 7 and 8 were ok. They have so much pointless filler and too much repetition of previous backlog. I don't need to read in every book the same description about the same people. I will read the last book but I hope it is better than the last two books

I love this series and KMM didn't disappoint with this book. Mac is over thinking just about everything, Jada/Dani has shut off her emotions and Cruce is wreaking havoc even though he's locked up. I've learned to expect the unexpected when reading these books, hanging on for a wild ride. And this was definitely wild.

THAT is more like what I expect from this series!

Holy cliffhanger batman

Another great addition to this awesome series. I loved it. After this cliffhanger I hope we don't have to wait a year for the next one!

Awesome

Unfortunately, this continues to not be what I wanted and hoped for from the second part of this series. I loved the initial books with Mac narrating and will gladly say they're one of my all-time favorites. Iced wasn't perfect but it set exactly the path and POV for this set of books that should have been. Mac and Barrons are seen and discussed but are no longer the focus. Dani stole the show and even though it took some getting used to it was her turn to shine. When Burned turned back to Mac's POV and I read some of the plot reversals and manipulations that warped the story I was incredibly disappointed. Now in Feverborn we get POVs all over the place but we're still stuck with Mac. She's got a bit more fight than in Burned but I still resent her place at the forefront of the story. Also, the plot here barely moves forward. Almost nothing actually happens. There's so much internal Mac dialogue but little concrete change in circumstances until the end of the book. The saving grace is Dani. We FINALLY get to see some of her story and it's well worth the wait. My heart broke for her and then I grinned at her inherent Dani-ness. The final chapters of the book are fantastic and finally hit the mark for this part of the series. But, be warned it's a mega cliffhanger until Feversong! All in all, Burned and Feverborn just aren't what I wish this series had become but at least there's a spark here for going forward.

Oh Barrons how I love you and have missed you! And after saying that..... WTF! I can't deal with this torture waiting for another year! UGH ... ..please please for the love of God release the next one before next year!

3.5 stars, rounded to 4

This is probably my least favorite in the Fever series so far, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it. The previous books in the series set the bar pretty high. I'm excited to continue the series!
