Reread thoughts: It’s been over three years since I last read this book, and you may be wondering: “Lauren, is it still your favorite of TBS books?” So far the answer to that question is OF COURSE IT IS. Jaxon’s gurgling rage to Paige’s sneaky side are ICONIC. Plus, I’m here for Arcturus as always. My favorite giant of them all.
Ya know the first time I read this book it took me two months to finish it, and while I was enthralled, I felt like my brain was scrambled most of the time. Throughout this reread I’ve just wanted to smack myself upside the head for that old thought. I always thought this was the weakest installment, and now I realized that each of them shine in their own unique way. The whole end of this installment destroyed me, and I’m pounding on the glass that’s keeping me from The Mask Falling. A brutal, epic book.
Also is it too American of me to hope that the free world power trying to take down Scion is the U.S. and maybe even more so all of Northern America? Cause that’s what I’m hoping.

4.5 honestly. I wish the flashback scenes weren’t in this installment because I just wanted Paige and Warden in Paris. Though I still enjoyed them.
Reread: This keeps the same rating only because I do stand by my comment that I would have loved to just see Paris Paige and Warden the entire time. I did massively enjoy the flashbacks more than I previously did.

Reread thoughts: I read this first as a 7th grader back in 2012/2013. I can’t remember for sure, but I was obsessed with this book then, which I’m enthralled to say still applies to 2021 Lauren. It’s a full circle moment. This book isn’t incredibly action packed. It’s slow and steady, and it certainly wins the race. I find the only weird part to be that Stephenie chose to add the detail that Wanda’s new host was 17, so she was technically underage (tho some states say age of consent is 17) and needed to lie so she wouldn’t have to wait to be with Ian. Ummmm I think you could’ve scratched that detail Steph. Melanie’s detail about it made sense, but making the comment and joke with Wanda just wasn’t the vibe.
