5/5
If you have
not read this trilogy you need to read it now. Filled to the brim with
suspense, action, passion, and a beautiful boy named Noah Shaw, these books are
perfect for any Young Adult fan who is looking for something a little bit
different. I am writing this review after re-reading these books and I found
that I picked up on so many little clues and understood the books a lot more
the second time round; that is one of my main issues with these books, it can
get very confusing. Also, if you have an incredibly weak stomach like I do, you
may find some of the chapters a bit disturbing as I found myself having to skim
read a couple of pages because I was feeling a little nauseous. But that isn’t to
say the books are filled with violence. Whilst there is a little of that, as
Mara says at the end of the novel, this story is primarily a love story. And
Noah Shaw has definitely made his way into my top 5 book boyfriends. I adore
the family dynamic of these novels and Daniel (Mara’s brother) is my favourite
character and everything I would want in an older brother if I had one.
If you love
books that keep you on the edge of your seat and leave you thinking about them
for days and weeks later, this trilogy is the one for you. As Cassandra Clare says, these books are “haunting
and dreamlike” and I cannot agree more!
