I hear wind comb the wild grass of distant moutons, I hear wind howling confessions in empty, lonely plains. Yards of wind, acres of wind, infinite whispers fusing to create a single breeze.
“Leaves, shuddering under the weight of resignation, yoked to branches too easily bent, broken. I’m seeing it–I’m actively witnessing it-and I still can’t believe it.” (pg.

Literally all my book notes for this review, is “Beautifully written,” because that is what all her writing is. And as someone who’s trying to write a book, I can fully say I give Tahereh my utmost respect because it’s not always easy to find the right words to describe something or make a reader feel a certain way. I could feel everything, I could hear it so crisply, I could see everything with so much clarity. I don’t need to read her words to know they are her words because she has such a unique writing style that is so descriptive and places you in that character’s shoes and environment. Because there are certain authors out there who’s voice are so strong you can practically hear them. I am ecstatic for her and will forever support her. So it really does feel like the end of something huge.īut it’s also the beginning of something more for Tahereh and her career as an author.

I never heard of an author finishing a series and then going back into the world. Then by a stroke of pure miracle, news that Tahereh was writing three more books for this series came forth into the world. So prepared because other series have trained me that we don’t get to see what happens after just three books. I was so mentally prepared to never see Juliette, Warner (Aaron), Kenji, Adam, James, and Castle again. Reviewīack when Ignite Me came out, I was like, this is the end of an era.
But she may not get to choose what side she fights on. The day of reckoning for the Reestablishment is coming. And with old enemies looming, her destiny may not be her own to control. As she struggles to understand the past that haunts her and looks to a future more uncertain than ever, the lines between right and wrong-between Ella and Juliette-blur. Now that Ella knows who Juliette is and what she was created for, things have only become more complicated. 310) AboutĬlick to read other book reviews Other Tahereh Mafi Book Reviews The girl who shocked herself by surviving, the girl who loved herself through learning, the girl who respected her skin, understood her worth, found her strength I imagine gold hair and green eyes and whispers, laughter.
