Now, I'm not usually one to write a review for all three parts at once, but since I haven't been updating in a long time, I figured that it would be best if I just wrote my review for all three since it's been forever since I've written one at all.
Let me start off with - what the hell did I just read? I cannot say that it was a bad trilogy it was the complete opposite. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I had been looking at reviews prior to reading the trilogy and just let me say I wasn't too excited to get into the books. But once I got into them and I started my relationship with Silas and Charlie I just couldn't back out of it. These books were so catching and were well written that I just couldn't put them down.
My best friend and I had thought that we were going to read them together, we would see how many chapters and then guessimate how much we wanted to read by the end of the week... for both of us - it didn't take us a week to finish the books. We were done in days sometimes a day.
Colleen and Tarryn did such a wonderful job at writing characters that you are able to fall in love with. That you are able to connect with and want to know more about. There is just so much character and life to them, that you have to know what's going to happen. You fall in love with who they are, even if they don't know who they are. We remember what happens to them - so we want so badly for them to find themselves and figure it all out.
Silas Nash - at first I wasn't so sure how I felt about him. I had mixed emotions the more that we found out him. That he was cheating on Charlie that he was emotionally over invested in Charlie - and that he just seemed so confused in the life that he was living before everything happened. But it didn't last long before I became a Silas lover. I wanted him and Charlie to figure everything out so quickly. I was thankful that I didn't have to wait for parts to be released and that I was able to just read through all three parts to know what was going to happen.
Charlie Wynwood - this girl drove me completely and utter bonkers. I couldn't stand the way that behaved, I didn't like the things that I was learning about her. I surely didn't like how she felt that her father walked on water after everything that he did. But looking back at the books I'm glad that, that was who Charlie was. Because it showed her throughout the novels that it wasn't who she wanted to be. It made her want to become a better person which is something that I was thankful for at the end of everything.
The whole story was wonderful that concept was amazing, it was something that you don't read all the time. But the ending was anti-climatic for me - I was waiting for something more... more of an ending something that was worth it ultimately. But this ending just didn't cut it for me. I was upset by it because of the simple fact that it was so simple, there was no voodoo by the Gypsy woman - there was no relationship formed between The Shrimp (Cora) and Charlie even though the truth was out. Nothing was really answered for me besides they are able to remember who they are and everything they had forgotten.
I was very upset that I never got an answer as to why there was mud and blood in Silas' bed from the first book - I was not pleased with all the questions that I still have about the book. Did the files ever get turned in against Brett Wynwood? Did Jeanette and Charlie ever become better sisters? And the ending... I need to know more still. Will there be a sequel series to follow Never Never so we know what happens with Jessa and her boyfriend?
I loved this trilogy I did and do not love all the questions I'm still aching to know...
