This novella is a short story about a break in in the library at Rowan Estate and Adne’s recurring nightmares involving Bosque Mar.
Funny how one last page,just a few words can change everything.
So there is Fourth book now.I think it should be a Spin off but w/e Im all for Snakeroot
Pretty cover too

I liked this.
That's it. Mainly because of the Searchers - Adne, Connor, Ethan and the addition of Sabine - they're all very cute and dandy.
But this novella didn't satisfy me enough to erase the dissatisfaction from Bloodrose. It just didn;'t. I think Andrea Cremer should have just ended it slightly different and maybe even placed this at the end of Bloodrose, because by publishing this separately, the readers who were left angry, annoyed and the like, won't pick up this novella because the serie...more

I had hoped that this novella would be some sort of peace offering from the author since Bloodrose left my heart in tiny, pulverized pieces. I love Andrea Cremer and her Nightshade series; and, even though I gave Bloodrose five stars due to her incredible writing and her ability to create such an emotional attachment between myself and her characters, I was very saddened by one of the choices made at the end of the series. So, I had high expectations that Aftermath would somehow make amends.

This review has spoilers from Bloodrose (book 3). Please do not read this if you have not read Bloodrose.
Where to start? Okay so I really liked Nightshade and Wolfsbane and most of Bloodrose. But I really did not like what happened with Ren. And I really did not like how Bloodrose ended. But I was curious about Aftermath (supposed to be a story right after Bloodrose).
Since the whole series was mostly about the wolves for some reason I thought that this story would be about the wolves. That we wo...more

Hmm… What is the point of this? Is Cremer planning to write a sequel to the Nightshade series? Is she trying to win back fans who were beyond irritated by the end of that series with the hints/teases in this novella?! This really smacks of way too little, far too late to me, but I might be intrigued if she does have a follow-up book/series planned… Then again, I’m not sure Cremer can be trusted. I haven’t been able to talk myself into reading RIFT yet--I’m just having an excruciatingly difficult...more

I didn’t really know what Aftermath is about when I first saw it. I just grabbed it off and read it immediately only knowing this was taking place after the events of Bloodrose.
What we thought was the end of a waging war after a brutal fight between the Searches (along with Calla and company), and the Keepers (also known as the bad guys) wasn’t all that it seems. Although they have put an end to the Keepers’ reign, it didn’t put an end to all things evil. And Adne is just about to find out what...more

OKAY, first off I'd like to say I KNEW IT! Once I read what the book was about I knew that The thing going on with Adne had to do with Bosques garden from Bloodrose. Second, Andrea hasn't said anything about more books with them but if she decides to she better not have Adne go all evil like Eria and have Calla the wolf end up with Ren. Like wtf he randomly shows up after supposedly being dead. I know alot of people would be happy since they are Team Ren but I'm Team Shay. An also you can't jus...more
*ahem* What was that? It can't be, can it? O_O I mean.. Everyone saw one's death. Everyone! It's pretty much impossible for one to be alive so I'm not going to get my hopes up and I'll settle with the solution that what Adne saw was a delusion or something.
Anyway, can I just say that I love Adne with Connor? #lesigh. I also adore Ethan's pairing. These four are cute little cupcakes who'd probably make me want to take the cupcake comment back but... No. I won't. LOL. They're awesome!

Since the whole series was mostly about the wolves for some reason I thought that this story would be about the wolves too. That we would get some closure on what happened.
Anyhow that is not what this story is about. This is simply a short story told from Adne's point of view.
Adne's having nightmares and later they realise that Logan may have stolen a bunch of books that might help the Keepers return to their former glory.

I thought that this part of the Nightshade story was done....finished...Calla and Shey lived happily ever after...the end. I was ok with that.....NOW she has to throw Ren (who's supposed to be dead BTW)back into the mix. I can also say that I would of definantly been ok is she never released it. If she wanted to keep it open for other books, she could've just added this onto the end of Bloodrose as a prologue, being that it is seems to be so short.
Well, well, well... she's finally come around. Reading the reviews, I don't need to read the book, but I... JUST LOVE THE FACT THAT SHE REALIZED REN NEEDS TO LIVE!!! Maybe I will read your books again. But maybe not. In my fanfiction, Ren is alive and with a BEAUTIFUL were-wolf/siren named Belladonna, and she is his true mate and ten times the warrior Calla is, so I think I'm good. Maybe.
5 star because of the possibility that Ren is alive.. What happened in Bloodrose made me feel so sad and devastated.. Ren is my favorite character and I just can't accept it that he died just like that.. This novella feels like an introduction for a new series because of what's happening with Adne and the rings they've discovered.. Will be waiting for news about this one..
I have the B&N special edition, so I actually felt a little cheated with this novella. It's pretty much exactly what is already in my edition of the book, but with a little bit tacked on to the beginning and end.
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love Adne. She's definitely one of my favorite characters, and anything extra with her I'll gobble up with a spoon. I just felt like I should have gotten more for my money.

And Cremer has done it again!
Is this the set up for another series following the Nightshade trilogy? Oh yes, I think it just might be.
I loved how she referred to things that we will learn about in Rift, and I cannot wait to read that book.
Oh, Andrea, how you tease us...surely your love of Adne will get you to write a book from her POV, no?

WTF does this novella mean? There's so many questions I need answering. Ren, Bosque, Logan? WTH! Does this mean there's going to be another spin off series or will old characters somehow feature in the new prequel series. ANDREA, I need answers! Otherwise, AWESOME novella - like always from Andrea! =)

I liked this because I LOVE Adne and Connor. I disliked this because (a) my general dislike of novellas and (b) HOLY CRAP UN-ANSWERED QUESTIONS! Like...this isn't an aftermath to a trilogy. This is an introduction to a new plot. This plot had better get all wrapped up or I'm going to be upset.
Nice little novella. Gives us a little look at what may be a spin off series :).
Ande is troubled by very realistic dreams that may be a foretelling of the future. I'm kind of hoping they are as I loved the Nightshade series. It would be interesting to see a little more Ren ;).

marked it as to-read
I'm not sure about this one. The author stood her ground after the end of Bloodrose. Did she get bullied into writing this after loosing half her fans? Of course I'm Team Ren and what to read, but I'm not going to rush off and do it.
Holy FUCKING FUCK!! I just burst into tears. Oh Ren. OH. MY. GOD. My sweet, sweet Ren!!! God I've missed you soo much. I will now be reading book 4 in the Nightshade series ;)
Seriously I cannot believe Andrea Cremer can do this to her fans- pure torture. If she doesn't follow this through and tell us about Ren I don't know what I wil do. If you have read bloodrose you HAVE to read this!
After reading this one it makes me think that Nightshade story isn't quite as done as I thought it was. I am intrigued to see what the author does next.
This book is amazing and well-written. It makes you believe that you know the characters and their brilliant story. The ending to this. Oh my Gosh.
I'm not quite sure what to do with this. Is there a sequel in the works or is Andrea just trying to torture us?
Interested in seeing how and what happens with Adne. Really hoping Ren comes back from the dead as well!!
Much better ending to the series, but why the new plot? This feels like an introduction to book 4.
If you're like me and HATED HATED HATED the ending of Bloodrose, read this.
