A review by natalierogers
Unbroken Bonds by J. Bree

3.0

I want so badly to say I love everything about this series and this book. I loved the books before this one but they were still repetitive and frustrating because like… how many times can we do and say the same things before we just run out of synonyms for them? I feel like there was so much unnecessary shit in the books especially this one.

Oh and what the fuck is Olis third gift… it’s never fucking clear. We finally get a clear answer about nox’s but never Oli

Spoilers ahead for sure…

I hate that Vivian died I get why it was a thing like oh it’s brought the community together but like… it was unnecessary to me. He died in the most shit way too like oh yeah he went down there and the god bond just killed him then itself… the god bond escaped and killed the guard and Vivian had enough time to notice the guard was gone for so long that he went down there… but the fucking bond hadn’t killed itself by the? No. That’s just not accurate and extremely fucking annoying because I loved viv. Why did they keep the god bong after North talked to him at all after that last time?! There was no point. They were so hell bent on bringing justice to Dara’s killer yet they just let him sit there and eat food and talk shit about the other gods.

Don’t even get me started on the rush job that was killing the pain god… you’re telling me I read SIX books for oil to not even REMEMBER killing the fucking thing. Sure the shadow travel whatever the fuck was a shocker and cool the first time it happened and I could kind of assume that was what was going to happen in the end but Oli doesn’t even have her eyes open and rips out the soul of the hod…. That’s it?M seriously?!

Did they let atlas’ sister and her bond go? Did Allie and the bonds have a baby? Did Kyrie ever find her bond group? Did Gryphons mom get out? Where is Gabe’s mom at like she’s clearly a shell of a person but where did she go?

I really wanted the epilogue to show down the road with the bonded group and family with kids running around and everyone happy and together but that’s just not really what I got from the epilogue given.
