chapters 1-9 (view spoiler)[I loved Mafi's writing, and I love Warner, but I had several problems with the second book, because I really do not like Juliette. She is so whiny, all the time, she is really exausting. But I lik how this third book start, maybe because we see more of Warner, I do not know. But so far I am liking it! (hide spoiler)]

[prag ♻]

I've just started. (view spoiler)[I'd forgotten how much I'd adored Tahereh Mafi's writing. It is beautiful. (hide spoiler)]

[prag ♻]

39% in (view spoiler)[Oh god. What has she done to Adam!?! He's been shown as some psychotic asshole instead of the kind and strong guy he was. All because of a stupid ship?? Are you kidding me? I understand Warner and Juliette are supposed to end up together but why ruin Kent:( (hide spoiler)]

[prag ♻]

84%(view spoiler)[ I'm full of feels aghhh. I know I was against Warner, but right now? I'm head over heels for him. His character is explored so deeply, it is amazing. Not only his and Juliette's relationship, everything is going perfectly. They've successfully persuaded the 45th sector, Adam has calmed down, and their plan seems perfect.

One thing I'm ABSOLUTELY loving about this is Juliette and Kenji's relationship. The easy banter, deep understanding, and platonic love- I'd even say it's the best part of Ignite Me. That's the kind of friendship everybody wants. Where you defend the other person without a second thought, you trust them with your life. You're not all seriousness, but understand each other. You care. It's fucking beautiful. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[I didn't like Adam in the second one a lot, too, so I am not too shocked. (hide spoiler)]

Feyde wrote: "I've just started. [spoilers removed]"

I totally agree! I love her writing :)

chapters 10-24 (view spoiler)[I liked the first one a lot, and I liked Juliett, Adam, Warner in it. In the second one I liked Warner, I do not like Adam and I really disliked Juliette. In this one for now I like Warner (again, but I totally love him. It's one of the best characters ever, I think. I do not like too much Juliette and I really dislike Adam. Kenji is great! And also James. I like this too and I hope to see more of them! (hide spoiler)]

[Sibil]

chapters 25-32 (view spoiler)[Warner is soooooo sweet! *_* (hide spoiler)]

[prag ♻]

OMFG AASDGFHJS IM DONE AND THIS IS SO COOLLLLLL(view spoiler)[This wasn't a great story, or anything. It didn't have a passionate romance. It was simply the story of a seventeen year old, told so powerfully, I began to hope for her world.

This was an amazing conclusion to the series- not only for Juliette, but Adam and James and Kenji and Warner and Alia and Ian and Delilieu and pretty much everybody. It gives an ending to every tale within the story, it fills the characters, and readers with hope.

Mafi, with this story, has proved how powerful words can be. (hide spoiler)]

I agree. Adam was good only in the first one. Unravel me was actually a big disappointment for me. I actually just skimmed through the pages. This book made up for it though:)

[Victoria]

Should be starting this first thing tomorrow! :)

[Victoria]

Up to chapter 15 (view spoiler)[ I don't trust Warner one bit. I know he has good excuses for all the bad things he did, but I feel like every word he says is a lie. And when he calls her "love", I just feel disgusted. Some people apparently really love him, and I can't understand why! I mean, he's already lied about everyone being dead. He'll say he didn't know, but I bet you he knew everything the entire time (hide spoiler)]

[Victoria]

Up to chapter 26 (view spoiler)[ Yay, they aren't all dead! Everyone important is alive and safe. I'm remembering how much I utterly adore Kenji, everything he says is perfect. Him laughing in the middle of Warner being all evil was hilarious :P And James is so cute! I'm going off Adam a bit - he's overly angry, and even though Juliette is an idiot, he should at least try to listen. To be honest, I'm only really a fan of the side characters, none of the main three in the stupid love triangle (hide spoiler)]

[Victoria]

Up to chapter 39 (view spoiler)[ The plan sounds like a good one, even though it relies almost entirely on spot he soldiers being trusting. That should work eventually though, right? I have faith in these guys. I wish Adam would stop being such an idiot. Everyone is training hard with Warner, but no, not Adam. He's too stubborn for that, even though it means risking his and James' life! (hide spoiler)]

[Victoria]

I should finish it today :) Up to chapter 58 (view spoiler)[ About time Warner and Juliette properly got together! It's been building from the beginning of the book, so I'm not at all surprised. I'm worried how Adam is going to react though... I'm also worried about the fact that I have only 20% of the book to go, and no rebelling has happened yet. I would hate it to end up rushed or really anticlimactic (hide spoiler)]

[Victoria]

Finished (view spoiler)[ I'm really not happy with that ending... It felt like there was still another book to come. Sure, Anderson died, but there was still a whole war that they said was coming! Plus, it was really rushed. I didn't get time to be worried about anyone, or even get very invested in the short fight. Pretty disappointed to be honest (hide spoiler)]

[Victoria]

Olivia, do you mean Ignite Me? We've just read it

[Ashley]

Chapter 17: (view spoiler)[ While I hate that Kenji was so harsh saying it, I agree with him. She's trusting Warner so easily after everything he put her through. I can barely remember the first two books and all that he's done to her but I'm still cringing whenever she is so receptive of him and let's him call her love. It's been a while since I delved into this series so I had to read some summaries to get me up to date. (hide spoiler)]

[Ashley]

Chapter 32: (view spoiler)[ I'm not a big fan of this at the moment. I would like more action and less of this angsty teenage romance. I usually like romance books but the fact that this is an angsty love triangle is kinda getting on my nerves. (hide spoiler)]

[Melanie]

I'll be starting soon. Hopefully tomorrow sometime :)

[Ashley]

Okay!

Chapter 50: (view spoiler)[ I'm waiting for some action to happen... I don't mind what's going on right now that much, it's not terrible. I liked her writing, but the story itself is now dragging. I'm 75% through and there hasn't been any sort of revolution, fight, or actual action happening. It's a rating of around 2.5 for me at the moment because of how long it's taking for stuff to happen. That thing that just happened with Warner's mom was sad, but it wasn't enough. (hide spoiler)]

[Ashley]

Done: (view spoiler)[ I must admit I'm a bit disappointed with the action sequence. It was so, so short and I think it was unrealistic that nobody ended up dying in the end. I feel like in a series like this the ending should've been sad and happy at the same time, but with nobody dying in the final battle it was too happy to be a very good ending if you know what I mean. I wish it wasn't so rushed, too. (hide spoiler)]

[Melanie]

(view spoiler)[there's no way Adam is dead... (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[the romance definitely got on my nerves!! I especially couldn't stand it near the end. :( (hide spoiler)]

[Melanie]

Ashley wrote: "Okay!

Chapter 50: [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[It was definitely boring to me. I didn't like the story at all and there also was some content that I just wasn't comfortable with. (hide spoiler)]

[Melanie]

Ashley wrote: "Done: [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[Yeah, it was a disappointing ending and definitely felt rushed! Although, I was glad when the book finally ended because I was just so sick of it by then. :/ (hide spoiler)]

I still don't love it but I noticed this one is a bit calmer so far.

(view spoiler)[ I'm still not sold on Warner myself. He is coming up with excuses for his actions but if he were truly good he wouldn't have kept someone locked up at all. (hide spoiler)]
