A review by airfluff
Dawn Study by Maria V. Snyder

2.0

This has been such a journey for me... with ups and downs. It saddens me that this last book is one of the down sides of the journey. I really tried to like it but, even though the book before got me to the point I never thought possible - me liking Valek and Yelena as a couple and even just Yelena as a character - this book kind of ruined all that.
The story wasn't a catchy one and I found myself bored while reading it. The romantic scenes - which were often happening - were so weird. I mean...every time they met, or got a bit of time, they did it. I would of understood it if the book was an adult book (which, I think should of been the case of this series - with Yelena 27 and Valek in his 40's) and the scenes were described a bit more. But the scenes were short and unnecessary. I think the story would of been better if all these scenes were divided between different couples, if Snyder explored more relationships between the characters of this book. One of those was Onora and Janco - I think there was something there worth more space in the book :).
All in all, I don't regret reading this series.
