Let alone run around screaming That ending was killer and I mean it in a OMG I totally respect this author for her magnificent ideas and ability to stun me killer I was so not expecting any of that and then the summary of the next one just threw me for a loop It also made me want to cry. Chick lit definition and examples Just a bit anyways Why are authors so cruel but at the same time so amazing Life should not work this way And lets take a moment to hush over the cover It is so pretty is it not And it really fits with the series Although personally I don t think that anything will be able to outdo the first cover or book for that matter Hmmm. Defiance of the fall book 12 G Henley was able to artfully continue Fenn s journey to saving her people with ease that not many other authors could manage to do I must impress upon you how truly AMAZING this book was So claps for the author for managing to wow me to such an extreme level So I guess what I m really trying to say is that without a doubt.
Defiance of the fall book 12
For those of you who loved AG Henley s debut novel the Scourge you will love her much awaited and anticipated follow up the Defiance and I m happy to say she s busily writing the next book as well about the Fire Sisters Without giving too much away I will say this if you are passionate about your characters as I am with Fennel and Peree you will both love and want to scream at Henley for her cliff hanger ending though I do have to hand it to her it was well played book two of the Brilliant Darkness series takes us on Fennel and Peree s uphill struggle with trying to convince the groundlings and lofties to go with them to Koolkuna where the water s pure the people live in harmony and their society will be welcomed eliminating the threat of the Scourge who they live in perpetual fear of Why then don t they want to trust Fennel and Peree and take their people to a place that offers survival It s not really answered in book two though it s alluded to and of course the Three are behind the struggle for control of the groundlings fate When there is no longer hope and threats become too dangerous for them to stay Fennel and Peree finally lead a small group of willing citizens of both groundlings and lofties to the nirvana that is Koolkunabut not without sacrifice of the biggest sort While the front part of the novel is slowly paced as soon as the decision to go is made the book speeds up and is over before you know it or want it to be Just when you see the light and want to know what happens BAM I will not divulge or spoil the ending or give the cliff hanger away but you ll probably do something equally silly like rant at Henley as I did to hurry up and get writing because it s a special kind of torture making us wait like this Solid second novel in the series and I suspect book three will blow us away as a new civilization unfolds and drama ensues for our loveable couple Fennel and Peree and they d better get their HEA or else 206 Talk about all over the place emotions here One minute you are happy and the next it is so sad and hopeless I felt a wide range of anger hate sorrow despair and hope love and then bam it ends with another emotion I was finally relaxing after the long journey it took to get to the end of the book that I didn t see it coming Yes there is a cliffhanger If you haven t read the first book you would want to read it first There is so much you wouldn t understand if you jumped into the second one. Epub definicja Fenn and Peree return from Koolkuna to get her brother and anyone else who would come with them to find peace and understand about the Scourge That they really aren t the Scourge but ill ones they can talk to you if you aren t drinking the water near their home. Chick lit the defiance book But there is a long history and much mistrust in the two factions of people the Lofties and the Groundlings It s kind of like Romeo and Juliette a forbidden love And everyone constantly tries to separate the two But Fenn and Peree love each other and they will do what they need to be together Well except that Fenn is a little stubborn in trying to get people to listen and not leave when she is almost killed and threatened multiple times I love how Peree is always there for Fenn and doesn t care that she is blind He doesn t care about their differences and loves her so unconditionally Fenn loves him too and also loves her brother fiercely and almost looses everything in getting people to leave Bear still carries a torch for Fenn but is there for her however he can Moray well he is still a jerk but there is a motive to his madness here I don t think I can tell you too much without ruining the end But I will tell you that Moon has her baby outside of a good shelter That was so sweet. Book the deficit myth Don t run away from the pain Fenn Feel it respect it and move onlike Aloe told me to do Burying it only makes you sick inside Trust meAnd that s when it hits me My broken heart is irrelevant How or Aloe would feel doesn t matter much either It s far too late to worry about that But I can make Peree happy I can do that Isn t that what love really is after all Setting aside your own problems to be there for the other person when they need you It s what Peree s always done for me 206 stars Well that was a lot of crying I mean I know I m a crier but damn. Defiance of the fall book 12 Emily Zeller was fantastic as always as the narrator Her voices were consistent even with the first book and I basically just LOVE everything about how she narrates these books I honestly can t imagine consuming this series in any other way it s so easy to get sucked in and absorbed by the words. Ebook definicja Sometimes when I read a series like this I wonder if the subsequent books will be as good as the first Well in this case success I loved in a heartbreaking way seeing Fennel s community struggle with the aftereffects of the reckoning of what Fennel and Peree had to say about Koolkuna their forbidden romance just everything I think the allegories within the strife between the Groundlings and the Lofties was both subtle and beautiful you could really compare their struggles with many issues that separate any humans along gender religion but most especially race It was so hard to watch Fennel struggle with trying to convince her people and at a certain point figuring out when it s time to give up on them That broke my heart It s a truth about human societies that just kind of sucks we are inevitably resistant to change. The defiance college I appreciated how her relationships with her friends and family changed and grew over the story as they all learned to settle into how Fennel had changed flat characters and things that just didn t cohesively flow in the story that made this slogfest instead of a consuming in no time type of book I became very annoyed with Fennel I can t put my finger on why but the huge pity party she continually throws herself definitely had something to do with it I was hoping this book would be so much fulfilling It felt like the premise was to make it back to Koolkuna but Henley just kept throwing obstacles in the way so it would just stretch the story out instead of events naturally unfolding 206 4. Defiance of the fall 11 epub download 5 starsThis book is near perfection There is ZERO second book syndrome None at all In fact the story glides perfectly from book one to book two without a single hitch And while I still suffer the usual book hangover I am not left with the bitter taste in my mouth so common after reading a middle book There was no filler and no overdose of book 1 repetition The characters were already formed and they stayed true to who they were in The Scourge. Defiance of the fall book 13 Henley has continued building depth to each and every one of the characters I love her use of metaphors to bring texture to Fen s view of the world While I feel like I now know Fen like a sister there was simply not enough of Peree in this book I could feel the pull between them and their bond is stretched taut While I was pretty much already in love with Fen and Peree I have now learned to mistrust every other character and I may even hate a few I use the word hate in a good way As in the villains you love to hate And MAN OH MAN do I ever hate Kai with a fiery passion I m not even sure if she s technically a villain but I don t care She makes my blood boil and the bile rise up in my throat I would totally throttle her if she wasn t a fictional character that is It s hard to keep a level head when you re so invested in a series The Scourge had ended on a nice final note There wasn t a huge cliffhanger so I have to admit I was kind of assuming it would be the same with The Defiance Crap was I ever wrong Here I was flipping pages all warm and glowy with how everything was working out when BAM Out of nowhere I ran into a wall A big giant red brick wall of NNNOOOOOOOOO Now I have this supreme desperation for the next book 2014 SERIOUSLY Unacceptable Just no.

The defiant band members G Henley is a USA Today bestselling author of contemporary and fantasy books and stories including the Love Pets adult romantic comedy series The first book in her young adult Brilliant Darkness series THE SCOURGE was a Library Journal Self e Selection and a Next Generation Indie Book Award finalist She s also a clinical psychologist but she promises not to analyze you much. The defiant lyrics Well I don t know what it is but I love this story I like the almost Romeo and Juliet feel to it All the secrets that the two groups holds is amazing and some of the people who wanted to leave does surprise me The idea that Moon goes into labor at the worse time helped the angst of the journey Now we have this new group to deal with and what will happen to the people they left behind Will we actually find out 206 This was a great sequel I thoroughly enjoyed it I think the first was better but I still loved this one We see Fenn and Peree s relationship blossom They begin to see each other and grow fond of one another But not everyone is happy to see a Groundling and a Lofty being together In fact they make it extremely difficult for them to see each other even going to lengths of punishments if they are caught together But that s not there only problem Fenn only return home to the forest to tell the people that there is a place where the Hidden Waters exist a place with no dangers But to convince the people to join them makes it harder for them Especially since there are attacks and threats of a war happening between them Will Fenn and Peree be able to convince people to join them Or will they suffer by doing so They must make a choice to stay and convince them to go with them or to just go on themselves I warn you this book goes through a ride of emotions We will see characters being angry and bitter hurt and emotional betrayed and suspected of crimes All these emotions make you feel sympathy for most of these characters especially Fenn She is brave yet fragile at times but I still love her for that and her courage to fight for others over herself This was a wonderful novel and then that ending happened Thank goodness I have the complete boxset because that cliffhanger is huge A very but clever unexpected turn occurs and I can t wait to see what happens next Received a copy from the author herself in exchange for an honest review thank you 206 I wish it was possible to give 6 star reviews Yes I realize that the same rules apply to 5 star reviews but I have a distinct rationale behind this thought There are a few authors who I always tend to give 5 star reviews for simply for the pure entertainment their books provide However I can count on one hand the number of authors who provide a compelling storyline as well underlying themes that cause me to reevaluate myself and the society we live in For example Suzanne Collins with The Hunger Games Trilogy Veronica Roth with the Divergent Trilogy and now A. The prize winner of defiance ohio book G Henley with The Brilliant Darkness Series While I love these books for the plot and amazing characters I also enjoy evaluating my paradigms and all of these authors cause me to reflect on society for months and in some cases years after first reading the books. Defiance of the fall book 13 Henley does a great job picking up where she left off with her first book The Scourge Fenn and Peree are back with their respective tribes and are having a much harder time convincing people that there really is a better way to live Fenn in particular is determined to help as many of her friends and other Groundlings that there truly is a better way to live However very few want to see her succeed The tensions are even higher between the Groundlings and the Lofties and she and Peree aren t sure who to trust other than each other Each tribe wants to keep them apart because they are upsetting the status quo Just how far will people go to maintain that status quo It becomes apparent that both Peree and Fenn are in grave danger will they be able to escape with their lives or will Fenn sacrifice hers in an attempt to unite the tribes I have to admit there were several times I wanted to throw my iPad across the room because Fenn was so adamant about trying to open peoples eyes to new possibilities as well as the truth even when if meant risking her own life She felt guilty about leaving the Groundlings and people preyed on her goodness I wanted to shout at her that if people are so resistant to change and disrupting the status quo then screw them it s their choice While Henley doesn t convey her underlying themes paradigm shifts the courage to change and ultimately the freedom to choose like Suzanne Collins that in no way makes her books any less enjoyable That s what s so great about reading various authors there are only so many genres to go around yet each author puts his her stamp on their books Henley allows the reader to experience the hope frustration fear and resolve of underlying themes through her characters thoughts Through Fenn s thoughts we are able to understand what Henley is trying to portray regarding her underlying themes However she does it in such a way that the reader can simply enjoy the book or analyze it to death the way I do I really enjoyed watching the relationships of various characters evolve in this book I was so proud of Fenn for standing up for her beliefs yet also knowing that not many people are willing to broaden their horizons and take risks This book had me chuckling wanting to beat my head against a wall and a few tears even escaped As a writer that s how you know you ve succeeded As a reader that s what draws me into a story and keeps me begging for . The defiance cast And luckily for us there is a 3rd book coming I highly recommend this book The characters are extremely relatable to the plot is well thought out and good and the world building is rock solid I was extremely lucky to get an advanced copy form the author is exchange for my honest review I m looking forward to the next installment Hurry A. Ebook definicja G 206 I was really looking forward to this book and I m kind of sad to say that it really didn t live up to my expectations I liked it but I didn t love it Spoilers ahead ye be warned. The Defiance kindle reader I felt throughout the entire book there just was not a whole lot that was going on Too much time was spent on the arguing between going or not going and who was coming and not coming I felt that Peree and Fenn s relationship did not develop much at all and all of the threats that they receive are kind of brushed off to the side when it is revealed that it was Moray and his brother Why even put that in if it is not going to amount to anything The main problem I had with the book is Eland s death I get that the point is that Fenn sacrifices things she isn t prepared to sacrifice but I think that killing Eland kind of makes the book lose that spark and now it s just well a book I was not really curious about how the book would end because it was quite anticlimactic Eland dies and the journey is just a blur which I get that s how Fenn feels and we re getting the story from her POV but there s just so many holes. Defiance booking 2019 And then the ending seems a bit random to me I know we hear the story earlier in the book but it really was just added on with no rhyme or reason I feel like it just helps so that there s a title for the third book. Book the deficit myth After reading the synopsis for the third book I m not really sure what to think either I mean I ll probably end up reading it but I m not on the edge of my seat waiting in anticipation If Fenn and Peree s love is as epic as the reader is led to believe then a demand from Kai that she wants what Fenn has really shouldn t be a primary focus for the third book. Defiance of the fall pdf I m not a sequel second book person something about it just puts me off For no apparent reason So going into The Defiance I have to admit that I was scared that it would live up to my expectations of what the second book in this series should be Here s the thing I really should have just trusted the author that this book would be fantastic because it really truly was So first of all I m not normally a crier I mean sure there are some books that can easily reduce me to a sobbing mess but those books are rare And I have to say that this book had a huge emotional impact on me These were characters I loved from a book that I have reread countless times Talking about the Scourge here And several things that happened in this book carried such a huge emotional impact And I was supremely impressed with A. Book the defenders G Henley for now only being able to deliver such a profound emotional blow but also doing it with her amazingly vivid descriptions Throughout the book I connected to Fenn With the amazing writing style I was able to understand all of the pain she was going through and the decisions she was having to make It was brilliantly done The main character Fenn is blind So you would think that that fact would hinder the author s ability to create a world completely different from our own right WRONG Fenn s descriptions using her other senses as well as the other character s verbal descriptions help to establish exactly how Fenn s world looks. Young adult deferred entry of judgment And onto Peree Several thoughts he remains awesome He and Fenn are perfect for each other And if I ever have to gush over how cute a fictional relationship I would chose this one D Enough said And have I mentioned the extreme epicness of EVERY single other character on this book Yes even the evil ones And the ending. The defiance cast Does no one realize that the next book doesn t come out to 2014 Fact it says it right on one of the last pages where it lists off the information Don t worry it does give a small summary for the next book I know what I ll be repeatedly reading until then And the ending was insane At first I was like awwww this is so cute I needed to run around my house doing fangirly screams Note This idea would not have been good I was finishing it up at like one in the morning Grumpy family from lack of sleep not good But then I continued to read and in the last couple of pages I couldn t even function enough to stand up The Defiance is a very worthy follow up to one of my all time favorite books YOUR MISSIONMoving on. The prize winner of defiance ohio book So wait do I hear a voice in the crowd Is someone telling me that they have yet to read The Scourge Gasp whoever you may be I am shocked I am dismayed I am thoroughly disgusted with you kiddingnot really BUT lucky for you The Scourge is on sale for the low low price of 99 cents Grins evilly So I believe you have but one option GO BUY IT And while you re at it you might want to go pick up The Keeper for the same low price And if you didn t know The Keeper is a short novella told from Peree s POV describing the events that occurred at the beginning of The Scourge In case you re likely to cave into my peer pressure than my skills of persuasion I ll leave you on this note with the mantraDO IT AND YOU RE COOLRepeating in your head Man I am a really good salesperson.
