A Heart So Fierce and Broken by Brigid KemmererMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I received this free eARC novel from Edelweiss. This is my honest review.
Again, I'm oh so glad I decided to read these books back to back because so many details would have been lost through the year-ish wait in between.
I'm surprised at how much I liked Lia Mara. She's stuck in a really hard place, being the sweet, gentle person she is in the cruel, uncaring world she lives in. Seeing her mother and sister be ruthless with other people's lives kills a small part of her inside, and that makes me love her more. Then she loves to read and be alone and I'm basically looking in the mirror.
Gray was always an interesting character to me in book 1. His connection with Harper made me think that those two were going to end up together, so it was a bit of a curveball when he became attracted to Lia Mara in this book. And his conflicting feelings about his entire existence really made Gray stop and think about what HE wanted for maybe the first time in his life.
This book felt like there was nothing going on. These characters traveled and traveled and TRAVELED and I felt like it was never going to end. However, the ending (that I 100% predicted by the way) kinda of made up for it in the long run. The epilogue was a shock to me I will admit, and I'm very interested to see what book 3 will bring!
