Aurora Burning (Aurora Cycle, #2)

by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff

This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews After re-reading Aurora Rising I jumped straight into Aurora Burning. I love Squad 312. They are a bunch of misfits that wouldn't normally give each other the time of day. Being thrown together the way they were and going through all that they have, have made this squad very special.

One of the characters I was very excited to hear more from and about was Zila. In the first book, Zila has very little to say and she was the one character who's story I thought we needed. Well, Amie and Jay definitely delivered on that one! what a story Zila has. It was absolutely heartbreaking. With Kal's sister showing up we learn a lot about his childhood. We also learn more about the rest of the squad too. We get to learn more about some than others but that was the way with the first book. Each character tells their story at just the right time.

As with the first audiobook, the cast does an amazing job. The characters and voices are just so well matched. If you can listen to the audio of this book because these narrators really bring the story to life!

This book has a lot of mystery in it and I for one cannot wait to explore it even more! The ending was such a big cliffhanger that I am just dying for book 3 now. These two sure know how to break a girl's heart! What makes it worse is knowing that Amie and Jay have already written it and I can't have it yet. I mean I think it's in edits or something but I'd take it if I could!
