7 stars, 10 stars, 28 stars.... There is no limit to the stars that I would give Through the Ever Night if I had that option. Under the Never Sky was and is a favorite of mine. I was doubtful that this second installment could beat that out, but it has. Oh, it has! This story was beautiful, and heartbreaking. Emotional. Humorous. Beautiful, from the first to the very last word. I am so in love with Aria and Perry and Roar and Reef. I have an insta-hate going on with Kirra. Especially at the end. And Cinder, I love that kid. Him getting a birthday! Man, guys. If you haven't taken a chance with this series yet, please do. If you haven't gotten to this book yet, please do. It is truly spectacular. I cannot wait to get Into the Still Blue! Recommended to EVERYONE. All people. Any gender. Read this series!
