The amount of times the word sliver came up 😫😫 the first 70% of the book felt somewhat predictable but I feel like the end made it worth it - the amount of plot twists were crazy. Some of them completely blindsided me. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*semi-spoiler?*

HOW can you choose to end a trilogy so rushed and hectic like that??🥲😩 Sadly the third installment of the Powerless series left me thinking of what could’ve been💔 All that build up, aaaaaand then came Fearless.. Don’t get me wrong, it has a lot of what the first two books give you - the chemistry, the longing, the banter, etc - but things just get repetitive and then it’s as if Lauren just needed the book to be done with🥸

Well, that hurt. I haven’t cried that much reading a book in a while😭 I couldn’t put it down. It was like watching a movie. So many plot twists that had me absolutely flying through pages. I was either crying, gasping, or grinning.
The scene with Mak had me sobbing.😭 And then the scene with Kitt.😭
Ugh, the brother relationship between Kitt and Kai was one of my favorite parts of this series and that ending hurt.🥺 Goodness, this book was an emotional rollercoaster🫠 But such a bittersweet ending to Paedyn and Kai’s story! 

There were things I wasn’t a fan of in this book and series. I wasn’t a fan of some of the decisions the characters made and some of the content. This author definitely knows how to write gripping books though!

Content notes: Frequent language and fade to black scene.

I thought this was the strongest book of the series for the trilogy. This is a sad read with a happy ending but I wish some other side characters got a little more acknowledgment in the final character chapter. Spoilers about major character and story information:
I was so sad that Mak and Kitt died in this story. I thought they were such great characters and was disappointed to see their ends, especially since it seemed rushed. I wish we had more of Kitt’s POV during this book rather than his dad’s, I could care less about that character’s inner thoughts. The twist of her lineage was pretty predictable.
I think that Lauren Roberta writes very strong characters and write anguish extremely well. I would read more from her in the future.

OH MY GOD this book!!!!! I flew through this. It was such a good way to end the series.  I laughed, I cried, I screamed. I had SO much fun reading this!!!! I would sell my soul for a few more books in this series.

What a good third book, as good or even better then the first in the serie. Many twists and turns, which keeps you want to read more. But it also gives closure and it has a clear ending.
