      Instagram Twitter Facebook PinterestI ve been sitting here for several moments trying to figure out how to begin this review The Lone City is such a weird YA trilogy it s dark, and yet not dark enough it makes genuine attempts to be gritty, but is bogged down by cliche and tepid romance it appears to be a fantasy novel, yet the world building is so terrible that it could just as easily be a drastically different version of our world In short, The Lone City is the perfect storm of things that I d [...]

      Help me Help me help my sister This was a YA dystopian story, and the end to the series Violet took a lot of risks in this book, and really went out of her way to try and do what she thought was right She did maybe take too many risks at times though, and put herself and other people in danger because of it.The storyline in this was about Violet returning to the Jewel to try and save her sister, and working to take down the royalty from the inside This was an enjoyable story but it did take me a [...]

      Such a fast paced read, I had to stay up late to finish it in one sitting I love Violet and how powerful she is, and what she inspires in others Her sense of loyalty to her family and friends was lovely to read about Aside from that, man, did things get real at the end there The plots and motivations for the different characters all came to the surface and it made So Much Sense I also thought that all the deaths were really well handled too, so overall, this is one of the best finales I ve read [...]

      1 1 2 starsI want to say this was a completely ridiculous, stereotypical dystopian fantasy trilogy and I would never recommend it, but that s not entirely true For some odd reason, I liked the second book Sequels are usually the ones that end up disappointing me, but here it was the opposite Let s run through what I thought of this series The Jewel was addicting, but I had so many problems with it The vague world building, underdeveloped characters, instalove, and clich s, just to name a few The [...]

      Der Anfang war soooo viel versprechend aber das Ende hat mich doch irgendwie entt uscht Ich dachte das Buch endet mit einem gro en booooom aber irgendwie war es wie ein kleines pff Schade aber ich kann damit leben In diesem Teil ist Violet anders, einfach r cksichtslos, nur zwischendurch kam die alte Violet zum Vorschein Die Liebesgeschichte fand ich ehrlich gesagt auch einfach zu gezwungen ohne dies w re es auch nicht schlimm Ich fand es war nichts ganzes und nichts halbes Aber im gro en und ga [...]

      Ein gelungener Abschluss der Reihe Zwar h tte ich mir den Kampf am Ende ein wenig ausf hrlicher gew nscht, aber das ist meckern auf hohem Niveau.Die Charaktere haben eine so unglaubliche Entwicklung durchgemacht und ihr Entschlossenheit f r ihre Ziele zu k mpfen und einzustehen ist berw ltigend.Insgesamt fand ich den ersten Teil am Besten, aber auch Teil 2 und 3 sind nur knapp an den 5 Sternen vorbeigeschlittert.Von daher klare Empfehlung f r diese Reihe.

      3.5 STARS I didn t like this book as much as I liked the second part of the series but I still think it was a great conclusion to this trilogy The only things that bothered me a little were that the beginning was really slow and that whenever events from the other two books were mentioned, they were also once again thoroughly described It just really disrupted my reading flow I usually don t mind those recaps of the other books because they do help if you don t read all the books in a row, but I [...]

      Ein gro artiges Ende einer au ergew hnlichen Reihe Ich war etwas besorgt nach den Ver nderungen bzw Geschehnissen in Band 2, aber das Finale hat mich von vorne bis hinten packen und begeistern k nnen Das Juwel ist eine ganz neue, interessante und erschreckende Dystopie, die ich jedem empfehlen kann

      The Black Key was the last book in The Long City series It also picked up right where the second book, The White Rose, left us with the cliffhanger It shows us Violet trying to find and save her sister Hazel at any cost However, she was also a huge influence to the rebellion because she was one of the leaders but family will always come first to her.I really liked how the story unfolded and how this book ultimately ended this pretty amazing series It was a pretty quick read and was very hard to [...]

      3.5 4 starsI enjoyed this series a lot It s totally underrated, imo Thankfully The Black Key is a satisfying conclusion for Violet, Ash, Garnet, and Raven, with once again quick pacing that had me racing through its pages and a sprinkle of romance Looking forward to books from Amy Ewing

      Der letzte Band der Trilogie war ein guter Abschluss der Reihe, aber im Nachhinein hat mir der erste Band echt am Besten gefallen Jedoch fand ich die F gungen im letzten Band echt spannend aber die Reihe hat mich einfach nicht total berzeugt.

      3,5 starsIt s been quite a while since I ve finished an entire series, and it feels kind of really good Like I feel so accomplished and glad that I got to see this Story unfold from beginning to end And I did really enjoy it Overall this series does have some flaws, definitely, like the, sometimes frustratingly bland, main character or the very simple distinction between good and bad Or, related to the main character thing, how the books would majorly focus on Violet I know she s the main charac [...]

      J ai largement pr f r ce dernier tome au pr c dent M me si je trouve toujours certaines choses exag r es, on peut dire que cet ultime tome ne manque pas d action Il se lit toujours autant vite et on ne s ennuie pas une seule seconde Certains v nements m ont bris e le coeur mais j ai toujours du mal m attacher Ash et Violet.Mes personnages pr f r s restent Lucien, Raven et Garnet.
