Oh the feels I got this from this book! I loved this sequel! I found myself yelling at my Kindle, stopping myself from throwing it across the room during the frustrating parts, and groaning in exasperation when certain things were revealed or unexpected things happened. It was that good! 
 The book starts with an action sequence, sort of sets the pace for the rest of the reading. Burn Bright is action packed and it wasn't just that, there were moments that I found sad and shocking, scenes that kept turning the pages to figure out was going to happen next and what Susannah's next step would be (plus figure out what it was she up to exactly). 
 More secrets are reveled in this sequel and we finally get to know who the Remnant is, something I figured out halfway through the book (view spoiler)[it's the one girl that Gideon has been pining for: Brooke. And don't get me started on who Gideon is, I would rather not spoil that for those haven't read it yet! (hide spoiler)] 
 Audrey's father appearing in the book was something that I did not expect. Seeing as how he was connected to Verrick and his powers were sealed, I had an inkling that something bad would happen and then her father's powers would come back and all hell would break loose but it didn't happen. I was left feeling sort of let down with the interaction between Audrey and her father. I get that he's basically a shell of the man he used to be and has no emotion now but it would have been nice to see a spark in him that connects him to Audrey and her mother, Lucy/Morning Star, but nope, he's lost and probably won't remember them again. My heart went out for Audrey during this part- it was nice to know that Audrey and her mother needed to know that he was okay in order to let go. 
 I found myself getting frustrated at Audrey for her fighting against the Guardian bond because it only caused problems for her and Leon. Then, when they couldn't get past the fact that Leon was Called to protect her and Audrey didn't want him getting hurt in order to do so and they ended up at an impasse. As much fun as it was seeing the both of them argue in the first book, it became sort of heartbreaking seeing them be mad at each other because of the broken bond. (view spoiler)[Don't worry, the bond was restored once Audrey realized that she needs him and that the only way for it to work is for her to protect Leon as he protects her (hide spoiler)]. 
 Thank god for no love triangle! Really enjoyed the romance, Leon and Audrey were more couple-y and had more scenes together than the first one, and I just liked how Leon still felt the need to protect her despite the fact that she thought the Guardian connection was gone after what had happened at Harlow Tower a few months ago. Despite all this, Leon and Audrey manage to make it work, which makes them one of my favorite couples so far. I would love to see what happens next in the last book of the trilogy and will be expecting more Leon/Audrey moments. 
 So many things happened in this one that my mind is still trying to process everything that has happened! Can't wait for the last book in this trilogy Fire Fall, here on Goodreads it says that the expected publication date is September 30th 2014 and if that's true, I can't wait for September to get here! Although I will be sad to see this world and characters that Bethany Frenette made up end, but I'll be happy for the time being anxiously awaiting to see what the last part of Val's vision has to do with Audrey saving the world!
