Review
I don’t know where to start, this book is absolutely awesome. It’s intense and you must be prepared to suffer with Brighton. This is not the last book, so don’t panic when you read The King.
We find Brighton trying at all costs to kill Aric, she wants revenge and even if only Tink and Caden are aware of it and the latter tries as best he can to stop her.
Brighton is an interesting character, she has evolved so much since we met her, she doesn’t realize it and it’s Caden who points it out to her. And I might as well tell you that it’s not over with everything that’s happening to her in The King.
As for Caden, he remains true to himself, his objective is to kill Aric and protect Brighton but he is clumsy in his decisions and actions.
I really liked this book, we discover all the strength of character of Brighton, I look forward to reading The Queen in order to know the end of the story, Caden’s reaction and especially I want a happy ending for them.
Quick word: Another nugget written by Jennifer L Armentrout.
Chronique
Je ne sais pas par où commencer, ce livre est absolument génial. Il est intense et il faut vous préparer à souffrir avec Brighton. Ce livre n’est pas le dernier donc ne paniquez pas en lisant The King.
On retrouve Brighton qui cherche à tout prix à tuer Aric, elle veut se venger et même si seul Tink et Caden sont au courant et ce dernier essaie tant bien que mal de l’arrêter.
Brighton est un personnage intéressant, elle a tellement évolué depuis qu’on la connait, elle ne s’en rend pas compte et c’est Caden qui lui fait remarquer. Et autant vous dire que ce n’est pas fini avec tout ce qui lui arrive dans The King.
En ce qui concerne Caden, il reste fidèle à lui-même, son objectif est de tuer Aric et de protéger Brighton mais il est maladroit dans ses décisions et dans ses actions.
J’ai beaucoup aimé ce livre, on y découvre toute la force de caractère de Brighton j’ai hâte de lire The Queen afin de connaitre de fin mot de l’histoire, la réaction de Caden et surtout j’ai envie d’un happy end pour eux.
En bref : Encore une pépite écrite de mains de maitre par Jennifer L Armentrout.
