A review by laughlinesandliterature
Almanegra by Jodi Meadows

5.0

Asunder was a great follow-up to Incarnate, it really felt more focused. It was very clear from the beginning what the questions were that Ana wanted answered. I also really felt like the romance moved at a realistic pace, and it was wonderful because it never felt rushed.



Ana really grew into her own in this book, she began to realize that she had always deserved to have friends and a love of her own. It was difficult for her to come to that realization because her mother was so awful to her. I really liked that she became able to even stand up to Sam, it really wasn’t much but she became less afraid of expressing her opinion.



I even liked the drama with Stef, I saw it coming, but still I’m glad it was there. It was very obvious from the beginning about how she felt about Sam. It was good addition to the story because it does matter after 5,000 years. I did love how tenacious Ana was in this book. She was not going to rest until she figured it out.



I loved that there was the revelation in this book, and most of the questions were answered. I was heartbroken that Cris had to sacrifice himself, but I think what they gained was incredibly important. It was terrible what they found out, but I think the reaction of the rest of the old souls was just as bad. I can’t believe that they didn’t take into account their memories being tampered with. There were lots of justifications to keeping her in Heart.



This was a great follow up and really set the stage for the third and final book. I would give this 5 out of 5 stars because it sucked me in, and answered many questions and left me with even more!
