Hello lovelies,
And hello May! How I have waited for your warmth.. And for us YA bookjunkies it is also a special month, celebrating the release dates of long awaited sequels like “A Court of Wings and Ruin”, “Lord of Shadows” and “Always and Forever, Lara Jean”. We are all so excited that we decided to dedicate May to “Recaps”. (Hint: you can expect recaps of series from authors like Sarah J. Maas, Cassandra Clare, Jenny Han, Marissa Meyer and ofc, Marie Lu.)
And here follows my review for the 3rd and final book in “The Young Elites” series – “The Midnight Star”.
The story follows yet again a few months after the ending of “The Rose Society”, our Adelina has alienated everyone and is in the darkest possible place ever. Even more angry and lonely, she has set on a quest to conquer and destroy everything staying in her way:
“I remember her as clearly as if she were standing before me. She was ice personified. There was once a time when darkness shrouded the world, and the darkness had a queen.”
