Violent Heart by Candace Wondrak

4.0

Sooooo I really loved the first book and I liked the second, but the conclusion of this crazy and unique series wasn’t everything I wanted. I felt like the conclusion could have been just a little more polished or a little longer. I felt like there was so much going on, especially with that crazy ending from book two. The ending of book two could have taken this book in so many directions, but it ended up being very blah and not what I expected at all…. And not in a good way…. It made me so sad. I expected Lola’s brother to be this insane and creepy vlllian figure, but he was so boring and I was like whyyyy????? I did like Lola’s interaction with him though, I just wish there had been more on his end to make it just a little bit better.

The timeline in the beginning of this third book went back and forth from the ending of the second book to somewhere in the near future and it really didn’t make sense. It kinda put me off of the story a little bit and it was kind of a struggle to get back into it. Although some of the parts that I thought were going to be amazing were a little anticlimactic, the plot was still a crazy ride once I was back into it. The best part of the book series by far was the ending (no, not because the book was over,) because Lola finally got everything she deserved. Ugh I just love her so much.

Overall, this conclusion, although not what I wanted, was so thrilling and I just the main character so much!!!!
