Failed Future by Elise Kova
5.0

And here I thought that I would be able to go on a nice adventure with Elise Kova and her characters and not experience anything that would leave me biting my nails for the next few months.

And then I read that ending.

Firstly, I have to say that this was a highly rewarding book for anyone who's a fan of Kova's work and the AIR AWAKENS universe. It has all the character drama, romance, exciting characters, and magic that fantasy lovers could ask for. I loved how quickly the story swept me in, and have always enjoyed Vi as a character. She is someone I would love to have adventures with. Side characters like Taavin and my new favourite, Arwin, were layered and complex and added plenty of drama Vi's missions. I truly adore these characters and can't wait to see more of them.

The core of the story was filled with magic and betrayal and heartache. The level of detail and lore Kova adds to her work is amazing. And the ending... the ending was something I never saw coming and I am biting my nails for the next book. It can't come soon enough!
