kristinsh 's review for:
A Vow So Bold and Deadly
by Brigid Kemmerer
This reviews a full-copy ARC received from Bloomsbury.
Okay, my full review for VOW contains a whole bunch of spoilers so I'm tidily hiding it at this link for you:

Suffice it to say, though, I think this third novel satisfyingly wraps up the trilogy and was well worth the agonizing wait. By now Kemmerer has done a masterful job of getting us to care for each of her four main characters, and I feel that the narrative arc that she has created for them does them justice. (Except, possibly, slightly, Rhen. Which I talk about a little in my spoiler-y review.)
Do I want more? OF COURSE I WANT MORE. I love these characters and I want to spend more time with them, especially with the path that Kemmerer has laid out for them by the novel's ending. But considering how many trilogy/duology finales have left me:
a) scratching my head
b) tearing my hair out
c) feeling like I've wasted a whole lot of time on these people for no reason, apparently,
...I feel that A VOW SO BOLD AND DEADLY is a triumph!
