📚My review📚
As on brand with this author, he enjoys causing me to have anxiety and palpitations.  Book 3 took me on , 🎢  and I felt so many emotions. The plot twists were just PERFECTIONS. The things that happened, the maturation of Darrows and Servos relationships, the deaths, the crazy killing, and the purpose of the Rising had me on the edge of my seat.

🤯 Villians, you love to hate
I secertly enjoyed --Adrius Au Augustus-- I felt bad for him. Here is a man who felt unseen and unloved as a child. He grew up to be a sociopath bent on destruction and fear.
Octavia au Lune- let power go to her head & Prejudice blinded her to better way of leading.
Aja-- she was a Badass Olympic Knight. She survived and still kicked ass. They way they took her out was fucked up, but needed to happen🤷🏾‍♀️

💗What I loved
I absolutely adore Darrows & Servo relationships 
Victra and Servo funny mating
Mustangs brilliant mind
Sefi the Quiet-- she is the Bitch
Cassius finally learning the truth about his family
The destruction of the RIM docks
Antonia au Lulii get her ass whopped

😢 What had my teary eyed
The death of many important characters.  Even towards the end. I couldn't/ wouldn't believe this author would do such a thing. But of course he enjoys causing mega anxiety. 

💭I wonder what will happen to the Au Lune bloodline?
I have many questions and look forward to jumping in book 4!

Overall, Morning Star was absolutely amazing. I am still processing that ending. I give it to Mustang-- she did what she needed to do and I ain't mad.
