Shadow Study
by Maria V. Snyder
I found out that this was a thing last year in 2013, and I was so excited!
Then I saw this again today and I realized that this is 2014. The book is possibly coming out THIS YEAR!!!!
I just really hope it's as good as the first three! The Study Series is one of my favorites and I really don't want to be let down! Granted, I'll probably read all three anyway, but it would be nice if they were just as good as the others. Please don't let me down!

JANUARY 2015?!?!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

4.5 stars
I'm so glad I wasn't let down! While Poison Study will always be my favorite in the series, I really enjoyed Shadow Study. I loved having multiple perspectives and they were very well done (I especially enjoyed learning about Valek's past and how he became an assassin). Each chapter would end in a cliffhanger and left me hungry for more. It was hard to put this book down! While many people have said that the book was fairly predictable, this wasn't the case with me. Having not read the other books for a while, I didn't remember most of the things that could have made this book predictable. Besides, I was just glad to be immersed in my favorite series again, instead of trying to predict what would happen, I just enjoyed myself and went along for the ride!
Thinking about this book from a critic's point of view, it wasn't the best book in the world, but I certainly enjoyed it and am excited for the next 2 books!
