The Solace: Wow, this got crazy! I love a good alternative reality story. We went back in time, and now we're stepping into a possible future. We're presented with horrors and the consequences of the decisions our Animorphs have had to make, focusing on Jake's weight as the leader. The visuals are getting more and more intense and gory - our Animorphs are growing up in with the war. 

The Dread: A bit inconsequential to the overall theme, and the cut-offs from what happens on both sides made me throw the book, but in a "passionate I can't take the rollercoaster chokehold the series has me in" kind of way. 

Overall, I can't seem to put this series down. We're getting into some serious risks and sacrifices now. On to the next...

Books I've read and provided detailed reviews over the years but all data is lost after accidental deletion and GD refuse to restore it back.

Adding books back to my library for my own reference and tracking purposes

This was a weird one. I mean they're all weird, but in this one we have a 20 something year old Jake who has no idea how he got there, and we never really learn whats going on.

Another alternate timeline- but it was all just a dreeaamm!! A good installment, probably would've been better if it didn't come after an installment that was already another alternate timeline. While well written, it makes your wonder if there was any planning behind the release schedule for all these books written by ghost writers, because this just feels like a blatant cash grab. It doesn't add anything to the plot, and since we're on our way to last few (a bit of an underestimation, I know) books, I'd like for there to be actual content that leads to the finale, not just filler.
