Ivan Gomez ivange — ♥ Find my reviews on Blogger ~ Reviews by Bookish Sarah - - - *This review may contain SPOILERS for the previous three books in the Wings series!* Destined picks up immediately where Illusions left off. With the help of David and Chelsea, Tamani, Shar, and Laurel have Yuki captured at Tamani's apartment; tied to an iron chair and trapped within a circle of salt. They know it is only a matter if time before Klea shows up to try and free Yuki so that, together, they can find the gate to Avalon and carry out their plans. When Klea shows up, things get dicey. Shar recognizes her from a long time ago and swears she shouldn't even be alive. Tamani and Laurel escape by the hair of their chins. In the end, the only choice is to go to Avalon and warn Jamison of the danger that is on the way. And it is there that the final battle takes place. The fate of Avalon and the human world is at stake in this epic end to the Wings series. - - - Oh. My. Gosh. Can I just tell you how I cried almost the ENTIRE time I read this book? I can barely even type this out without tearing up all over again. I mean, this book was emotional to the maximum. This will be fairly short compared to some of my usual rambly reviews because I don't want to give too much away. It really has to be experienced first hand to be appreciated for how epic it truly is. This book is quite different from the previous three in the series. It is so so so fast-paced that it nearly blew me away. I also could not stop reading AT ALL. I neglected every single thing I had planned to do the day I read this. The whole book spans less than a 48 hour period. Most of it takes place in Avalon and it's a battle like you wouldn't believe. Pike stretched this battle out to a crazy length and she did it well. It was action packed and completely thrilling. I have come to adore each of the characters in this book. Laurel, Tamani, David, and Chelsea. Each of these people play a special part in the battle to save Avalon from Klea and her horde. All four of them go through a change in this book and come to realizations they may not have if not for the situation at hand. The romance? What can I say about it that wouldn't give something away? Not much. I can say that I am completely happy with how it all turned out. I was definitely able to breathe a huge sigh of relief at Laurel's ultimate decision. Not that there was really any contest, though, right? ;) As for the “Last Words” portion of the book, it was sad. Very. But, I mean, Aprilynne warns you prior to reading it that it's not a “happy ending” to the story. It was the original ending she wanted for her story, and she has every right to put it there and I, for one, appreciated that she gave us the opportunity to choose whether or not we wanted to continue. I would still rate this book 5 stars whether she put that there or not, whether she warned us or not, whether she wrote “two endings” or not. It's still the perfect end to a series that I have loved from the beginning. All in all, if you've been keeping up with this series, this is a finale that you cannot miss! I can say without a doubt that this book will make you cry your eyes out. I know I did. I had my trusty box of tissues right next to me once I realized Pike wasn't going to let up with the emotional onslaught. The battle is epic. The revelations are dramatic and some of them quite unexpected. Pike did not disappoint me one bit with this book and I will remember it always. It's beautifully tragic at times, but filled with hope, love, and determination all throughout. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Aprilynne Pike, for the most beautiful ending to your lovely series. ♥ - - - Book source: ARC courtesy of the publisher Publisher: HarperCollins

Lais Santos laisinha — I definitely wouldn't have read this if my good friend and colleague Janet hadn't handed it to me and said You Will Like This. I mean, it's contemporary realistic YA fiction, dealing with topics like sports and racism and ugh, not my thing. BUT it's actually really excellent. I loved the descriptions of life in Florida where there are thunderstorms every afternoon and burning swamps and sinkholes. And even though I hate sports myself, I do kind of like reading about them, especially when the underdogs win, as they so often do.

Narender Singh narendergfx — In my opinion, Patricia Briggs nailed it with this Novel. You have werewolves that aren't there for sex. A main character that isn't destined for greatness. Just enough magic to make it worth your time. Also a story that made me want to read all night long.
