Immortal Hearts

 8/23/22

I may have looked up to see how many more books of this series I had left. It turns out that this is the last one. I could have sworn that it was so much longer. Of course I have been trying to finish this series since freshman year and its a bit of a bittersweet ending. I'm glad that it's over but the fact that it took me so long to finish it was a journey. I literally grew up reading different styles of books while reading this series. I gradually went from loving it in the beginning to kind of being annoyed by it. My reading taste changed as I read these series and I was able to have it take place to notice the change I was making. So this series holds a lot of memories. But now it is coming to an end. I will say that I love the cover of this book and I'm curious on how this is all going to be tied up in a big fat bow in the end. But I'm ready to finally say good bye to this series. Starting with reading this book.

I have to take a small break from this book. Only because over the years I've grown to not like this series but being someone that has to complete something they started, I continue to read it. It's hard when you don't enjoy the series as much as you used to. But I figured a small break will be good and not put me back into a reading slump. I have four books to read anyways, so I can read one of those and then come back to this one. I am a third of the way of the book and I think this will be a good system. So far not much has happened in the book. Just the usual stuff. Luna grinding on Raven's gears. Raven is able to finally share her world with her best friend, who is still trying to process all of it. Also Alexander's sister comes to visit and Raven wants her to love her as much as Alexander does. But Stormy thinks that the reason why Alexander hasn't returned home is because of Raven, so she is polite but cold to her. Also Stormy has a strong relationship with Luna which makes Raven very jealous. That is as far as I got. Raven just complaining how she thinks is unfair that Stormy loves Luna and not her.

I finally finished the series. Its been so long that I have no idea what to do now. I've literally grew up with this series. Sadly, this book is only going to get two stars from me. It just isn't my cup of tea anymore. I started this series when Twilight was just getting huge. Vampires was the in thing and now it's not really anymore. But I did enjoy the book a bit. I know my younger self would have loved this series if it didn't take me so long to read it. But with life, you have to take breaks. Especially when your library doesn't have all of the books. Anyways, the book is just about Raven and Alexander working on their relationship to the point that Raven even thinks she pushed him too far. She was so sure that their relationship was going to end. But in her heartbreak, Alexander confesses to her the one thing that she always wanted to hear. He is willing to take the next step and spend eternity with her. So that is how the book pretty much ends. Nothing huge happens in the book. Sure Stormy, Alexander's sister, comes to visit but that was pretty normal. Raven seems to be meeting someone new in every book. Raven's brother, Billy, finds out about vampires after hanging out with Stormy but is promised to keep the secret. More for Stormy than anything. Stormy sees the true colors of Luna when she tries to help Jagger force a bond with Raven just to get back at Alexander. You know the typical Maxwells thing. That family can't be trusted with anything. I am a little sad that we don't get to see Raven's life as a vampire but I guess the whole series was based around Raven being mortal and dating a vampire. The struggles they go through being from two different worlds was the drama of the series. So I can understand why there won't be another book explaining Raven's life as a vampire. Maybe there is a spin off somewhere that will have that, but I think I'm satisfied with how this one ended. But I'm off to my next book.
