The One
by Kiera Cass
Once again, not crazy about the love-triangle/competition that is the main storyline, I was getting more tolerant of it by this book. Probably because one of the characters (who shall remain unnamed due to potential spoilers) was really starting to irritate me.
Also once again, the underlying mystery surrounding Gregory Illea and the kingdom is fantastic! I really enjoyed this subplot throughout the entire first three books, and it's really what kept me reading.
Also, I love a redemption arcs, and I got one (again, this second character shall remain unnamed due to potential spoilers). On that note, the ending scenes, while again predictable with the main storyline, did get pretty intense and did tug at the heart-strings in places.
Overall, I enjoyed the books, but they were far from my favorite. Will I probably reread them? No. Will I probably eventually pick up the next two books and the novella collection? Most likely. Would I recommend them to others I think may like them? Yes, and I did recommend them to my grandma. Her thoughts were overall similar to mine, but she enjoyed the main plot more than I did.
