I didn't want to read this book. I didn't think I would enjoy it. I knew that this was Warner's book. So, I read it.
I enjoyed it much more than the others. Ignite Me is also plotless. We spend a lot of time wrapped up in Juliette's drama. But at least we have Warner. He is charming as ever, and in this book, all his actions are explained and justified.
<soiler> Being in Juliette's head is exhausting. Also, she spends a great deal of time describing a wardrobe instead of focusing on world-building. But I get it. She spends most of the book locked in rooms, tanks, houses, or boats. The poor girl can't describe what she can't see.
Yet it's vital to a dystopia to know that Warner does, in fact, have good taste in clothes, and he's an obsessive-compulsive like me. But, instead of color-coordinating books, he color-coordinates his closet.
This book has some interesting scenes and subplots. It does not develop them because the drama overshadows them.
The war is laughable. In the blink of an eye, Juliette manages to defeat the commandant. Everything felt rushed and convenient.

ok i loved this book because warner and juliette are so cute, he says he's not a good guy but then he does good things!! and how he literally would do anything for her. i'm happy juliette is finally being her own person and is confident now. even adam turned out to be not so annoying. i do think this series could have been left at three books so i am sceptical about the fourth but i'm going to try it and find out. and i didn't realize juliette and kenji were so close, but i love his character. also, you're telling me she never ONCE tried to just 'turn off' her power?? like it was as easy as 'turning it off'??? i did feel kind of jipped on that

SO. GOOD. Very interesting and fast paced. It has interesting conflict and is the best book in the series by far. CW: there is some sexual content so if you are uncomfortable with that like me you can just skip it :)
