Let me start by saying it's really hard for me to review books i love, there is so much i want to say.

After a beginning I wasn't too sure about, Falling Kingdoms surprisingly became an extremely enjoyable - if somewhat unoriginal - story. Rhodes' world was a fascinating and exciting place that I am eager to explore more of in the sequel, her characters were complex individuals often torn between political and moral duty, and the tensions between the lands of this world (Limeros, Paelsia and Auranos) were highly convincing. My final opinion of this novel is such a turnaround from my first impressions that varied from indifference to a little disgust at Magnus' not-so-brotherly love for his younger sister (but more about that in a bit).

Elemental Powers: Elementia, or the magic that gives the world life, comes in four forms: fire, air, water, and earth. Witches can usually use only one or two of these, while sorceresses like Lucia can use all four.Rhodes, Morgan (2014). Rebel spring. New York. ISBN 978-1-59514-592-5.

It wasnt bad, but it was mostly just moving a few pieces around the board to lead up to something bigger. I am disappointed that I didnt like the book more. It wasnt bad, but I was missing that passion and excitement that I felt during the first book.

An epic clash between gods and mortals threatens to tear Mytica apart . . . and prove that not even the purest of love stands a chance against the strongest of magic. So you are probably confused, and trust me, i can see why. Let me clarify things for you, because i was really baffled at times in the beginning myself.I really wanted to like this, but I can't remember the last time I've come across a mainstream and acclaimed book that was quite so poorly written. We've got to talk about some things fam. Love, vengeance, and greed spark a deadly quest for magic in the third book of the Falling Kingdoms series. Sorceress: Lucia, adopted at birth into the royal family, discovers the truth about her past—and the supernatural legacy she is destined to wield. I've never been so undecided about love interests in a book. Usually I read some interaction between two characters and latch on, unyieldingly. In the first book I had a clear OTP (one true pair) that continued into the second but everyone seems to kiss everyone at some point and Morgan constantly makes you question where the characters' hearts lie. So by the end of the third book, I don't know where my heart lies, or the heart of the characters.
