Burning For Revenge by John Marsden
5.0
5/5
Wow. I get so into this series that in this book I was surprised to find myself on the last page with no epilogue like usual before then flipping back and finding out i'd read on not realising i'd gotten up to the epilogue!
It was intense. I often find myself skipping forward desperate as i am to know what happens next but then force patience as i go back and read slowly to enjoy and make it last.
Unlike the last this book had action - successful action - though i loved the twist of how they entered the danger zone by accident!
I keep remembering things from my previous read and assuming they will happen in each new book in the series but am surprised again and again. I'd completely forgotten about the girl Lee kissed and then betrayed him. It was a shocker!
Kevin omg. That would be me. Even though i'd wish to be Ellie. Or Fi as the expectations and pressure upon Ellie would kill me long before the enemy or the war would.
One thing i especially loved about this book - such a small touch but it makes all the difference - is how much Robyn is mentioned. No. Not just mentioned but represented as if she is still there. It shows that these war may have changed almost everything - even taking away the right to grieve - but Ellie cannot let go to her friend an honours her memory by remembering and trying to do good by her.
Overall another fantastic book in The Tomorrow Series
