paddlefoot55 's review for:

Chosen One by Scarlett Dawn
4.0

ARC received via Netgalley for an honest review

I have been waiting with bated breath for this final installment in Caro's story (you will need to have read Chosen Thief and Chosen Fool for this installment to make any sense).

Chosen One continues right where Fool ended, and it is one bumpy ride from that time on!

I liked Caro back in the past, chumming it up with the Prodigies (soon to be kings) and Elders from earlier books in the series. Oh my goodness was it great to see them. And their present day reactions to first meeting her make a lot of sense now.

Caro has been kind of in limbo in this series with who will be her love interest. You'll like it when you find out who they are - or are they really the one for her?

I won't lie though, I did have some issues with this story. I found it floundering about 3/4 of the way through, and felt it needed a push to get it back going again. I did end up skimming/skipping a lot from there one, as it felt like it was just spinning its wheels and going nowhere. I felt myself disconnecting from the story and just wanting to get to the end - this could just be me though.

Don't get me wrong, the story is good, I just felt that maybe it wasn't really the end, the closure of Caro's story like it could have been, if you get my drift.

Whilst this installment did fall a little flat to me compared to the previous books in this series, I know that there is so much more for Ms Dawn to give us.

Can't wait to see what she brings us next.
