It’s been three years since Rowan and Citra disappeared; since Scythe Goddard came into power; since the Thunderhead closed itself off to everyone but Grayson Tolliver.

In this pulse-pounding conclusion to New York Times bestselling author Neal Shusterman’s Arc of a Scythe trilogy, constitutions are tested and old friends are brought back from the dead.

What I thought of it?

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Format: ebook

ISBN13: 9781442472457


Thunderhead was a great sequel. I mean the world Neal Shusterman created in this series is just thought provoking and mind-blowing. You cannot read this book and not question our society, but also the numerous topics that are raised in this book.

But that is also why I think this book should be read when in the mood, and my mistake was reading this sequel when all I wanted was to read Christmas romances.
I felt like I didn’t connect to the characters as I did in the first book. When I read Citra’s point of view, I felt like I was discovering her character for the first time and not reading a sequel, which was weird.

Honestly my favourite character from this second book was the Thunderhead, because I felt like it was the most developed character in this book. The others just felt like side characters when in the first book, they were the main ones. Now, perhaps the reader is suppose to feel this way on purpose (I mean the title of this book is Thunderhead), but I was sad to not really care about the other characters.

Also, I really enjoyed everything that was happening in this book, but I felt like the pacing was really slow and I didn’t have that feeling from the first book. And suddenly by the end, everything happened super fast. Once again, it probably was on purpose, making the entire book built up until the end, but it felt off to me.

So overall, this is a great series, and I think it is definitely worth reading, and I am going to pick up the last book eventually, but when I am in the mood for it.

    Kiss the Fae   (Vicious Faeries #1)  by  Natalia Jaster What is this book about?  There are three rules to surviving the Fae—and I’m about to break every single one. Rule #1. Never cross into Faerie. When I’m chased across the enchanted border and caught by its sinister ruler of the sky, the pretty trickster with a clever tongue offers me a deal. Rule #2: Never bargain with a Fae. But I don’t have a choice. For thirteen days, I have to survive in his mountainous maze of crooked bridges, deceptive stairways, and devious inhabitants. Refuse, and my sisters will suffer as punishment. Rule #3: Never fall for the enemy. I should have known my sexy captor wouldn’t play fair. The deeper I plunge into this dangerous world of Solitary Fae, the more I’m entangled in their ruler’s seductive web of desire—and the forbidden temptations he offers. The price of losing this wicked game is everything I love. But winning might just cost me my heart. What I thought of it?...

The Chase (Briar U #1) by Elle Kennedy  What is this book about?  All books in the series can be read as stand-alones.  Everyone says opposites attract. And they must be right, because there’s no logical reason why I’m so drawn to Colin Fitzgerald. I don’t usually go for tattoo-covered, video-gaming, hockey-playing nerd-jocks who think I’m flighty and superficial. His narrow view of me is the first strike against him. It doesn’t help that he’s buddy-buddy with my brother. And that his best friend has a crush on me. And that I just moved in with them. Oh, did I not mention we’re roommates? I suppose it doesn’t matter. Fitzy has made it clear he’s not interested in me, even though the sparks between us are liable to burn our house down. I’m not the kind of girl who chases after a man, though, and I’m not about to start. I’ve got my hands full dealing with a new school, a sleazy professor, and an uncertain future. So if my sexy brooding roomie wises up and realizes what he’s...

     Deity (Covenant #3) by Jennifer L. Armentrout What is this book about?  ! DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE SECOND BOOK !  . . . Alexandria isn't sure she's going to make it to her eighteenth birthday--to her Awakening. A long-forgotten, fanatical order is out to kill her, and if the Council ever discovers what she did in the Catskills, she's a goner... and so is Aiden. If that's not freaky enough, whenever Alex and Seth spend time "training"--which really is just Seth's code word for some up-close and personal one-on-one time--she ends up with another mark of the Apollyon, which brings her one step closer to Awakening ahead of schedule. Awesome. But as her birthday draws near, her entire world shatters with a startling revelation and she's caught between love and Fate. One will do anything to protect her. One has been lying to her since the beginning. Once the gods have revealed themselves, unleashing their wrath, lives will be irrevocably...
