Today I am coming to you for the review for "Their Fractured Light" by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner! This is not my most recent book finish, but I really want to review it here since I reviewed "This Shattered World".
Summary as per Goodreads:
"A year ago, Flynn Cormac and Jubilee Chase made the now infamous Avon Broadcast, calling on the galaxy to witness for their planet, and protect them from destruction. Some say Flynn’s a madman, others whisper about conspiracies. Nobody knows the truth. A year before that, Tarver Merendsen and Lilac LaRoux were rescued from a terrible shipwreck—now, they live a public life in front of the cameras, and a secret life away from the world’s gaze.
Now, in the center of the universe on the planet of Corinth, all four are about to collide with two new players, who will bring the fight against LaRoux Industries to a head. Gideon Marchant is an eighteen-year-old computer hacker—a whiz kid and an urban warrior. He’ll climb, abseil and worm his way past the best security measures to pull off onsite hacks that others don’t dare touch.
Sofia Quinn has a killer smile, and by the time you’re done noticing it, she’s got you offering up your wallet, your car, and anything else she desires. She holds LaRoux Industries responsible for the mysterious death of her father and is out for revenge at any cost.
When a LaRoux Industries security breach interrupts Gideon and Sofia’s separate attempts to infiltrate their headquarters, they’re forced to work together to escape. Each of them has their own reason for wanting to take down LaRoux Industries, and neither trusts the other. But working together might be the best chance they have to expose the secrets LRI is so desperate to hide."
CAUTION: Possible Spoilers Ahead
My Review: (5/5 Stars)
For starters, I want to say that we have all been blessed by the fact that this trilogy's covers are in existence. They are absolutely stunning!
I love the two new characters that we are focusing on in this third installment. Tarver and Lilac from These Broken Stars are, and will always be, my favorites, but Gideon is AMAZING. He's snarky and I love it. Sofia is great as well. The switching of the main characters does not bother me a bit in this series, because you still see the characters from the first novels. Their Fractured Light bring back Tarver and Lilac as well as Flynn and Jubilee. You actually see a lot of them, so that is a huge plus to me. I also want to point out that Gideon is mentioned in This Shattered World and Sophia actually appears in it.
The character development in this story is fabulous. They both start out with nothing, and no one, and they are distrusting and untrustworthy themselves. You learn why they both hate the Laroux family (if you have read book two, then you already know what Sophia's hate stems from) I love that they grow as individuals and that their relationship grows as well. They have each other and can love and trust again.
The action in this book is constant! There are points in it when you think that you're at the height of it, but then *BAM* more action! It really kept me on my toes. There are some twists here that actually make me worry for the characters, (not only Gideon and Sophia), and they literally sent me into a panic. A straight up panic. Not exaggerating at all here. I love it when a book can make me freak out like I did, because it means that you're truly invested in the characters and what happens to them.
I adore this series and I was so sad to see it end. I've said this about the second book, but I can 100% extend it to all three books: These stories are heartbreakingly and achingly beautiful. The entire trilogy now has a place on my favorites list and I am SO glad that I finally picked them up! I definitely recommend them all to you guys if you haven't read them yet! You'll really be missing out if you don't!
XOXO,
Eden
