Black Dawn by Rachel Caine

dark emotional tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

Emotionally I want to give this a 3. But it wasn’t bad, I just didn’t like most of the decisions made at the end. Which probably adds to the story, I just don’t like it. 

Well we didn’t get a gay after all. Wasn’t real clear, perhaps asexual? 

While this was intense and scary and we lost some good ones and almost lost several other good ones, in the end terrible decisions were made and I think <b>real cruelty</b> is about to reign. Which is fucking stupid because of how many humans helped. Though really… it seemed they managed, in the end, with so few people including camps. Idk. 

The writing was still good, the build up to tense situations was creepy and good, the characters good, we got additional POVs though if you didn’t see the names on the chapter headings you couldn’t always tell it had switched. I’m super disappointed in Amelie. And Naomi still out there to cause chaos. I’m not gonna lie I’m just ready to have this series finished lol. Which probably means I’ll love the next one bc it seems to switch up every other book or so.
