My first thought is WOW. There was so much in this book I NEVER saw coming. Jones has the ability to twist plots into directions you never thought were possible. She is the master of her craft and impressive to read. 

When I finished this book last night, I simply stared at the ceiling of my bedroom for a solid few minutes, just to absorb what the frig I had just read. To process everything and get over one of the most gut-wrenching scenes I have ever read. Yes, I freaking cried okay? I do NOT cry. Pass the wine and ice cream. 

Amo Jones never ceases to surprise me with the evolution of her writing. With each book she grows into a greater author. She pushes the boundaries and the quality of her words increases. There were So many beautiful lines. Beautiful metaphors. And the way she just spins on a dime and brings us back into a completely other ambiance with one line, how much CONTROL she has, just... no words.

I love how every Amo Jones plot is its own Gordian knot. With every attempt at unraveling it, we are faced with even more questions, and when we think we have it all figured out, she comes in like Alexander the Great and slices it in half, surprising us all. (I like history okay, don't judge)

So if you didn't get the gist yet, READ THIS BOOK.

What the actual f*ck did I just read. This was such a complex, layered book where so many of our questions are finally answered, yet those now resolved questions are replaced by new questions rendering us just as puzzled as when we began the book. This story is so well crafted, and I just feel the need to underline it. There are so many plot layers in this book, and as soon as you think you have it figured out, that layer gets peeled away revealing a game-changer, where you will be saying in true Amo fashion : "Jesus take the wheel". 

I fell in love with characters I never thought I would fall in love with. We see a whole other facet to these complex characters; these characters who are just as layered and question-igniting as the plot itself. We see some of their meticulously built walls crumble, or lose some bricks allowing us a peek inside them. You will see a whole other side to Bishop, to Brantley, to Nate, to Hunter, damn, to every King. You will see that things do affect them just like they affect us. You will see that their masks slip, and you will love it. 

Amo has developed an artistic flair to her writing - a poetic side with beautiful musicality. This was a turning point for this series I think. Despite the plot being just as stratified as three planet earths put together, the quality of the writing in this one surpasses the previous books in the series, giving this one so much more depth. Some passages were awe-worthy, not because of their "mind-f*ckery", but because of their words. Because of how simple words strung together can express something profound. How mear letters can make you feel a massive wave of emotion; how mear letters can affect someone.

I think it is important to also point out that I gave up sleep for this book. I stayed up into the wee hours of the morning to finish this, because I could not put it down. The mear thought of doing so didn't sit right with me. Amo Jones is a master of not only intrigue building but intrigue maintenance - I know, I'm not very eloquent today, but what I'm trying to say is that it's relatively simple to create an intriguing premise, but it is difficult to keep that intrigue up for, oh, three whole novels and counting. *cue standing ovation*

So if you hadn't already gathered from reading one of my longest reviews yet, well, this book is the best one in the series thus far, and a beautiful turning point in Amo Jones' writing.

Oh man, how can a psychopath make me swoon so effing much? Because Amo Jones created him, that's why. Ever since I started this series, Frost has captured my attention. He is all dark, broody and mysterious. Speaking of mysterious, in this book, we see a completely different side to Ella. One that was always hidden from us. One that surprises us yet makes so much sense. 

I stormed through this book. I couldn't believe I had finished it so quickly, and then I got really upset because I wanted MORE. Amo Jones better get her butt in gear, cause I'll go all Ella on her. *devilish grin followed by batting eyelashes*

Amo Jones is the queen of plot twists. I don't understand how she manages to tie up her million loose ends whilst creating a million more to keep us hanging by. Every resolution creates a new situation. When I think back to the first book in the series, I can clearly the layered complexity of the plot, and it is a breathtaking concept.

You may be asking yourself, why only 4.5 stars if ya loved it so much? Well... I want more darkness, more angst, more intensity. I think I may be a little Frost-y myself when it comes to books, or have been desensitized by so many angsty books I have read, but I was expecting more. Nevertheless, that is just my cold heart speaking out, because my brain LOVED IT.

This book... Oh man... Amo may have wrecked me with Raze and Millie's story. This book broke my heart (in a very pleasant way - if that wakes sense at all). This type of story is the kind yo stick with through thick and thin. It's your "Ride or Die" kind of story... Literally.

All I can thin about right now is that MILES NEEDS HIS OWN BOOK (I claim him, and I won't be afraid to fight for him). I foresee a massive book hangover from this story - I include part one and two in this statement.

I am having trouble putting into words what I'm feeling right now. That epilogue just brought me an immense amount of peace. It's not a stamped and sealed HEA, as I wouldn't expect one from Amo, but its damn perfect for me.

Just like its predecessor, this book was pretty much non-stop; not in a dizzying kind of way, but in a paced and logically organized manner. I truly wish one day I could meet Amo, and give her the biggest hug ever, and drink wine with her - and eat a shit ton of nuggets *wink*

This book has just claimed the title of "Favourite book by Amo Jones". I am not kidding. I hadn't had a book affect me this much in a while. My heart felt like it was about to jump out of my chest the whole book. There was constantly something happening, a new development, a new lead. 

This book regrouped everything I love about this type of romance; broken and breaking people, MC, Underground, and great character development. I may have fallen a little for Raze and Miles. A little hard. "Puddin'" will forever make me think of this book and Miles. 

Yes, this book was filled with effed up shit that should have disgusted me, but man did I love it. I love the special relationship Miles and Millie shared. Heck the one Miles, Millie, and Raze shared. Is it crazy for me to say that I didn't mind it one bit, and even more than loved it.

Oh, and Amo made laugh so effing hard in public, people probably thought I was insane, so thanks girl. The word "Nuggets" will never have the same connotation. What is it with these food words being forever changed? 

When I got to the end of this book, I saw the words "The End" and still tried to change the page on my phone. Multiple times. Yeah, I was that desperate for more.

Jones has an amazing talent for telling captivating, emotion churning, stories. She will pull you in and peek your interest in the first chapter - heck the first paragraph. She is not afraid to stay true to herself and go full-on psycho, which is refreshing (yes I said psycho and refreshing in the same sentence). 

I am so happy that Jones does not shove an HEA down our throats. I'm not saying they are not present (or that they are for that fact) at all, but they're not the classic, unrealistic, and clear-cut. I discovered Amo Jones through The Silver Swan, and now that I'm going back in time (figuratively speaking), I can truly appreciate how she has grown as an author and storyteller (I wonder what bedtime stories she told her kids? *pensive face*). 

Anyways, like her first novel, the writing is not perfect, but it gets the essence of the story across. It still ticks all the boxes in the way of emotional roller coaster, and me questioning myself if I'm sane for loving the effed up stuff in there. Jones made me feel a lot of emotion with this story. I was felt immense heartache for the characters, she got me all riled up when something exciting was happening, and she made me worry as if they were REAL.

Razing Grace is lined up on my kindle ready to go, so I'll be diving straight in because of Amo Jones and her damn endings.

Although this book was written way back when Amo Jones started writing, and it's way different from her latest works, I couldn't help but fall for this story. 

This plot has the perfect amount of pain, sexiness, angst, and alphas. Speaking of alphas, I loved how both Beast and Meadow have strong personalities, in both senses of the word; they are strong people who have overcome unfathomable hardships, and they are opinionated people. I like how Jones was realistic in the amount of time passed, and Meadows life choices. How she allows Meadow to stay true to herself; her fears and her reservations.

I knew after reading the first chapter that I would storm through this book. I never got bored reading and never wanted to skim ahead. I devoured every word on the pages. 

No, it's not perfect, but it doesn't negate how I feel about the plot and the characters Jones created. How I feel about their interactions, their relationships, their opinions. 

I think you can guess what I'm reading next, eh?

I thought I was good at predicting endings, but man, I did not see THAT coming. I'm still trying to wrap my brain around it, and for that I applaud Amo Jones. Her ingenuity really came through in this one, with a completely mind boggling story.

I enjoyed the way it was written. I like reading sassy thoughts and comments - hey, I need inspiration for when I'll need to use some *wink*. I thought that maybe some passages or concepts could have been more developed, but I'm pretty sure Jones will answer our questions with more questions in the sequel - cause that's her thing (she's lucky I love her).

I came into this book expecting, yes a mindfuck, which I got, but also darkness. I wanted to dance with the demons written down on the pages. I wanted to play and bask in them, alas I think I may have desensitized myself to such darkness (I have been reading this stuff since I'm 16 so five years may do it). It takes more and more to shock me, and I gotta say, I was a little sad this didn't push limits as much as I thought it would.

Regardless, this was a page turner that left me tapping my phone while the (last) page didn't turn into a new one. I did read the last chapters twice just to be sure I hadn't missed anything. Just gotta sit and not so patiently wait for book two now.

Holy f*ck! I need time to process all of this! I stormed through this read, being unable to put it down. It was so utterly captivating and intriguing. Every single page from the first chapter - hell, from the damn Prologue on, had me hooked. How is it even possible to make a prologue so fascinating and enthralling? Well Amo Jones has pulled off the impossible.

In all honesty, I haven't felt this satisfied after a read in a while. Which doesn't make sense, because - questions! So many questions in my brain that need answering!

I love the Latin portions of the book. They add a level of complexity to an already complicated, mind muddling book. It is apparent that a lot of work has gone into building up this "secret society", and it paid off because it is just so well done.

I totally am on love with Nate. No joke.

I'm just going anxiously pace as I wait for book three. Sounds like a good plan, right?
