The Beauty of Darkness by Mary E Pearson

The Beauty of Darkness (Remnant Chronicles, #3)

by Mary E Pearson

Lia has survived Venda—but so has a great evil bent on the destruction of Morrighan. And only Lia can stop it.

With war on the horizon, Lia has no choice but to assume her role as First Daughter, as soldier—as leader. While she struggles to reach Morrighan and warn them, she finds herself at cross-purposes with Rafe and suspicious of Kaden, who has hunted her down.

In this heart-stopping conclusion to the Remnant Chronicles trilogy, traitors must be rooted out, sacrifices must be made, and impossible odds must be overcome as the future of every kingdom hangs in the balance.

I thought the characters were really well written, and although they drove me insane in moments, they followed a character arc that made sense for them. I was also quite sucked into the plot and the world. In a series that drags for me, I can find that by the third book I am only reading to finish. This was not what went on with this book. (I actually had a 2 AM finish time cause I was so invested.)

The only part that I was annoyed with is that I found the pacing at the end was so rushed. I know that there was a lot of plot points to wrap up, but I would have almost preferred another 100 pages to have more detail then to wrap up in a way that felt rushed.

Overall, I really enjoyed this book and gave it 4 stars.
