Me gustaría poder decir que no vi venir ese final, pero ya lo sospechaba. Lo que si no vi venir fue todo ese asunto de Evie.
Le habría dado 4 estrellas por toda la acción de la última parte, pero sentí que una gran parte del libro estaba, no sé, ¿desordenado? O tal vez soy sólo yo.
De cualquier manera, fue muy entretenido y me gustó a pesar de que al principio me costó un poco seguir el ritmo porque sentía que todo iba demasiado lento. Pero después del 25% se vuelve más fácil y te mantiene con ganas de seguir leyendo.

I kinda forgot I read this book. I'm glad Evie and Luc were actually doing romantic things this time. It was cute.

The ending throught me for a loop. I definitely didn't see that coming. This book definitely has some major highs and lows. Laughing and crying and then some even more crying.

“No, you’re the Burning Shadow and he’s the Darkest Star, and together you will bring the brightest night.”
Did I enjoy this? Yh boi
Would I read it again? probably.
Holy freakin’ Alien babies.
SO SO much happened in this instalment. We pick up right where we left off in The Darkest Star. Tomato soup and grilled cheese.
We have so many revelations and new issues arrive throughout this book that, at times it feels like an information overload. As I imagine it did for Evie. She’s got a lot to learn about this new world she’s returning too and with that a lot of memories that she wants to figure out.
The book is really well-paced and the balance of action vs character growth is brilliant. Evie is resilient and at times it seems to be a bit shocking for Luc and for other involved. Luc is opening up and I find we start to see the side of Luc that he doesn’t like to show often, if at all. We also learn about more about Evie and what’s in store for her. The direction in which Jennifer was taking Evie became apparent to me about a third of the way through this book, so, slightly predictable but it didn’t really matter for me. I’m also SO happy we got reunited with the old gang too. Seeing how far they’ve come since we left them in opposition warms my heart.
Jennifer writes with the balance of love, heartbreak and the characters sheer determination to find out what’s happened to her in mind as we go from chapter to chapter and it works very much in favour of the story. The fluidity of the plot is what engrosses you to the story and characters, which makes certain losses even more devastating. Now, as with the previous book, I noticed a few (and I really do mean a few) continuity issues with the plot, but not enough that it drew me out of the story too much when I noticed them.
Bottom line is, I recommend this series, especially if you’ve read the Lux Series. As spin-offs go, it doesn’t crash and burn as many do. Far from it actually. It has just the same amount of charm as it’s parent novels.

Ok wow, so much happens in this book in all the good ways. We really get to the meat of what is going on and how Evie. This whole book was jam-packed with action. I found the darkest star left us with sooooo many unanswered questions and this book gives them all to us but also leaves us wanting MORE.
I loved the romance happening between Luc and Evie you can see genuine affection from both even though Evie questions herself a lot Luc never does it really is a great story.
The narration was PHENOMENAL!
