I couldn't have imagined a better ending to this amazing series!

I put a lot of pressure on finales and this one was no exception. There were a lot of things to wrap up and a lot of unanswered questions. Everything was answered and completed.

But the most impressive thing is that there was never a dull moment. I was fully absorbed into every page of this book. And the pages would fly by! These novels were always such a joy to read.

I don't know why more people don't talk about this series! It's the standard I compare all other novels to when it comes to YA Urban Fantasy novels. And it has set a damn high bar at that.

Actual Rating: 5/5 ( )

Finally reading this conclusion, I can now say how much I really enjoyed the series. The ending is exciting yet full of revelations for the reader to enjoy.

Plot: So if you have not read this series give it a go. It’s exciting with a lot of drama and action pack with on the run fights to keep your heart racing. The plot picked up right where the last book left off, introducing the reader to the past. I love it when the reader gets more information from the past. It’s like a history lesson on why certain things happen. And let me tell you that Wings offers some pretty scary skeletons. With each new chapter to the past, a new door of why’s are answered. And it of course only left me wanting more.

Relationships: There are some parts of the story that give the reader lots to look forward too. There are so many secrets that are exposed, the reasons behind people’s actions and just ahhh. I don’t want to give it all away but I can tell you that this story is so exciting. Every person is connected somehow to the past and all because of a relationship.

Ending: The ending is satisfying. I really like how the author brought the story together. She did a great job bringing in the past piece by piece as well as the present to help the readers understand the end. There are some sacrifices that had my heart on my throat but OMG its awesome.

Overall, this series is pretty good. It had my attention the whole way through the story and paved a way for a great reading adventure. Wings is a fantastic ending. ( )

This has been a series that I have loved and sought out, so of course I was nervous going into it but had every faith that Richards would do an amazing job. Honestly, going in, I only remembered the basics and that Ash was an amazing character and I loved their romance.

It started right in with the story. The alternating POV between Natalie and Ash is back. It is so hard that they are separated because I know they are lonely and worried about the other. Its the last book so its not a spoiler to say that I was soooo relieved when they were finally reunited even under the rising chaos and such of trying to take down Puritan Rose and his cronies.

There are quite a few twists in this one, and one of those surprises is that there is another point of view. With my fibro and memory issues, I didn't remember if we'd met him before or the significance of getting into his head, but I did like his voice and the tension of the time and rules he's living under. He's had a hard life, but it is good that he has that bond with one person in his family--even if his methods of showing love are sometimes harsh or shocking.

This isn't my favorite of the series though. It was good and mostly kept my attention but I did find a few times where I was skimming and looking for action, romance, or the next POV. This was mainly in about 2/5-3/5 of the way through, once past the halfway I was flipping pages like nobody's business wondering how everything fit together.

And once it started clicking, the set-up really set the pace on fire. Information was revealed that had me pretty shocked. Also, the romance was amazing and it kept making me sigh. I love Ash to death and how he is with Natalie, and the strength and resolve he has to keep going and fighting for a better world for all the races together. He sees a lot of loss and grief, pain and suffering in the fight to get there.

Each character played their part so well, and I really appreciated the ending. It gave me closure and it was a brave way to go out. Nothing was 100% put back together, but the people who needed to die or pay for their actions got what was coming one way or another, and Natalie and Ash have the hope and bright future ahead of them to make things work in a whole new way. They feel the loss of some who fought beside them, and they relish the ones who made it and others who joined them along the way.


Bottom Line: Good ending to a series I loved, hard saying goodbye to Ash and this swoony romance. ( )
