 ASUNDER Review

 Just like INCARNATE, ASUNDER and I had a very interesting relationship. I was dead set on giving ASUNDER three stars like its predecessor, but the last eighty pages really hooked me in for the next book. 
 Because of Templedark, everyone is concerned about the oldsouls that are not going to return, and the newsouls that are going into be born into the world. Although she helped make the disaster less horrendous, some still blame Ana for the incident. 
 If you didn't care for INCARNATE because it was missing action and focused solely on romance then you will find improvement in ASUNDER. There was a mystery that definitely screamed to be solved, and that was the main thing that kept me really involved in the story. 
 We find out so much more about Janan, sylph, the history of Heart, and the concept of reincarnation in this series. This part of the novel was fantastic, all the secrets wove neatly into each other and left you satisfied yet still wanting more information. 
 I still had a huge problem with the relationships in this book. It seemed like every character was in love with Sam but, oh wait-no, that person also has a thing for Ana. Not to mention the characters who motives changed unpredictably and went against their original personality. 
 Ana went through a huge round of character development and actually became somewhat honorable. In INCARNATE, she seemed like a weak protagonist that couldn't make up her mind what kind of personality she wanted to have. Overall, I think that was because she was vulnerable and just plain stubborn sometimes. I have a lot more respect for her afer ASUNDER. 
 The ending is bound to tear you apart, I was totally not expecting it or the twist that came along with it. I recommend this to fans of INCARNATE, and people who didn't like INCARNATE for the reasons I mentioned above. I will be reading the next book in this series.
