Suns Will Rise
by Jessica Brody, Joanne Rendell
Could not wait for this conclusion...
After the nerve-wracking ending of Between Burning Worlds, I preordered this almost as soon as I was able to and was so excited when it came in. However, it took me about twice as long to finish as either of the previous books did. The pacing was really off here and the first probably 60% of the book was a slog. I did love getting to see Chatine bond with Roche and Cerise's storyline was even more interesting than it previously was. Even still, not a lot happens for a lot of the book, which is a departure from the rest of the series.
BUT...the ENDING!! For about the last quarter of the book, I could not put it down. Everything that had been building finally came together and (kind of literally) exploded. Seeing the rebellion finally happen was exhilarating, as was watching Alouette finally come into her own and speak. A lot of books do make me tear up, but I was full-on sobbing when Etienne sacrificed himself for the cause in Chatine's place. Besides that, the ending was extremely satisfying and wrapped up the trilogy well without being too sickly-sweet.
