So disappointed :(

I could not wait to read this book! I even re-read the first two in my giddy-ness to read this one. I cant tell you what went wrong. I just dont know. I felt like I was in the twilight zone.. Clara did what? Angela said what!!! It's like these charecters were out in left field!

Read on if you dare.... (Lots of spoilers)

(view spoiler)

Damn.... Ms. Hand.. you broke my heart!

Tonyalee Aww 3 -stars?? You're making me nervous.


Jaclyn Ughhhhhhh I'm like devastated.. I texted my sister this morning and was like yeah remember how u hated Mockingjay.. Now I know how that feels..


message 4: by Tonyalee (new)

Tonyalee Aww.. that sucks.. I'm still looking forward to reading it though.


message 5: by Tonyalee (new)

Tonyalee Also, should I read the novella first before this?


Jaclyn Um you can.. But basically it just introduces you to a character it's relatively short.. I read it in an hour but I wouldn't say it's essential!

Hopefully you will like it! Can't wait to see what u think lol


message 7: by Tonyalee (new)

Tonyalee Ok good. I'll have to wait a little bit to read it, but it's on my high priority list


Jaclyn Haha let me know if u wanna borrow radiant I have it on kindle


ÓË¥R²¹³¦³ó±ð±ôÓË¥ I'm Team Tucker and I wasn't happy about how all this went down. The focus was completely on Christian the whole book and then he's tossed aside, barely a footnote in the end. I loved Christian too and I think he deserved a happy ending. He gave up Kay for her and he loved her. Why not give Kay back to him? I felt the same way about the RA being blamed for Angela's pregnancy. Boo.


Jaclyn Honestly it was like the Twilight zone, I was on Team Undecided for a while it I just felt like Christian grew on me and they were supposedly "so perfect, finishing each others' sentences, each others match, soul mates etc" and than out of no where it's like BAM!!!! I'm really really confused on how this even happened

Angela's wings just be dark gray after all this bullshit lol

Negine So I just read Unearthly and Hallowed back to back and really liked them. I wasn't going to read any reviews for Boundless but since I'm weak I totally caved and even clicked on your spoiler tag! Wow! Sounds convoluted and she really seems to hammer the point of free will vs destiny in this final book? Like you I am team undecided but was hoping for more of her and Christian (he grew on me too!) and a better storyline. More answers would be good too regarding the angel made like why is it that they can't sense their own kind?!(view spoiler) That's something that's been bugging me in the first two books. Anyways, I'll probably read boundless at some point but I was just curious if (view spoiler)

Sorry for the mini rant and thanks for your thoughts on this one even though it ended up being disappointing :(


Jaclyn HAHA thanks Negine for even reading my review :) OK so i agree with you totally I feel like how do they not sense their own kind but can sense black-wings, and why couldnt Angela figure it out about Christian and the plot twist enolving the two of them will make you even further be like WTF???
Tucker becomes a prophet and so yeah im pretty sure they get passed 2base but they dont let you see that. All of their purposes are finally revealed and are linked together. The crazy thing is that tucker only appears in this book maybe 3/4 times max. I also agree with the idea of free will vs. destiny but the book is so Christian-Clara focused and Tucker is like in the peripheral and the ending is just OMG so, so awful. I would read it for closure honestly, but since you know hopefully it wont punch you in the gut like it did me !!!

Negine Oh man! That is just sad...this series had so much potential!!! I'll stick with Laini Taylor for my YA angel stories ;) Thanks so much for answering, Jaclyn :)


Jaclyn Of course!! Love me some Laini Taylor :)
Idk if you've checked out Angelfall by Susan Ee but is an amazing angel/dystopian book! Dark but excellent?


message 15: by Negine (new)

Negine Yes! I have read Angelfall, Loved it! Can't wait for the sequel.


Jaclyn Idk if you saw..'it's kinda cool on Laini Taylor's blog she had an artist do drawings of like Brimstone and Isa.. You should. Check it out so cool!'


message 17: by Negine (new)

Negine I have seen those! Really really cool. There is also a movie in the works which I'm pretty nervous about. I don't see how they can even come close to doing the books justice.


Jaclyn Yeah It has my vote to be four hours long if need be :)


Marisa If you check on her profile, you'll see she's writing another book. There's no cover or anything, but I have a feeling in my gut that the end of Boudless felt like a cliffhanger for Christian and I'm praying this new book is his story. Have hope! <3


Jaclyn It says she's writing contemporary YA with a twist.. I didn't see anything about another 'unearthly' book, have you?? Thanks tho!!
