Reviews with content warning for Death of parent - Ignite Me

My favourite book of the series so far. Warner in this book had me screaming, giggling and kicking my feet. With Adam, I wanted to push him off of a cliff. I loved Juliette's character development in this one, she's grown to be so much stronger compared to the other books in the series. I also love her friendship with Kenji <3 The only reason this book wasn't 5 stars is because I felt that the 'climax' of the book was underwhelming and was over way too quickly. I feel like Juliette's plan was kind of mediocre and should not have worked out as well as it did. Other than that, I had a really good time and finished 90% of the book in one sitting. Can't wait to see what happens in the rest of the series. LYHFML

This book really aggravates me. It feels like I was reading the same conversation over and over. Everyone is far too emotional and there’s no logical person there to help calm things down.

There is way too much focus on the romance and the emotional sides of the book that the plot and character development suffers. Juliette finally starts to understand her powers, but it has felt like such a background thing yet its key to the story?

Adam is still incredibly aggravating and confusing. He’s so annoying! I’m glad Juliette has finally realised how pessimistic he really is, and how strange his obsession with her when “she was broken” truly was. I hope he falls off a cliff I really don’t care for him.

how he belittled Juliette’s imprisonment in the first book, even after being in the same cell as her, was actually disgusting, and wasn’t fully realised. Just because others have it harder than Juliette that doesn’t diminish the struggles that she went through?

Kenji’s confusing to me. I don’t know why he jumps to the conclusion that Juliette’s being a dickhead or whatever - I thought his character was meant to be more logical? Idk he was written weirdly to me.

Ok. With Aaron Warner, a lot of this book felt a bit like history revisionism and gaslighting Juliette into making her believe that Aaron’s not that bad - after all the things he did, theres reasons!!! It didn’t feel planned really, it felt like she realised Aaron was really popular so rewrote the

child torture and Aaron killing that soldier

stuff in order to make him redeemable. It’s too perfect.
Aaron himself is kinda funny - He does carry this book a lot.

idc about any of the other side characters i cant even tell u their names tbh

The final build up to Anderson’s assassination was so fast and easy. The fact we spend 320 pages on a love triangle and like 20 on executing the main antagonist is ATROCIOUS. This guy should’ve been dead years ago if hes that easy to kill.

THERE’S A LOT I CAN SAY I LOVE ABOUT THIS BOOK.
I loved Juliette’s character development with how she learns to be more true to herself by the end of the book. I love Warner and how he wants her to be true. I love Kenji in this book as usual he’s great in almost any book he’s in.

Admittedly I didn’t like how he did lied to Adam about Juliette’s feelings but he ultimately tells the truth.

Also I thought Juliette was pretty badass at the end of the book!!
Mainly what I didn’t like was Warner’s farther as a character that much. To me he was not really interesting as a villain. I did find his relationship to Warner to be interesting. Besides that when he shows up he is very uninteresting as villain and kinda predictable imo.
My conclusion is this is a better romance book than a dystopian book. And that’s what I like about it.
