Diving into Tremble for me, was a planned event. I bought snacks and prepped bags with Fruit Loops, Reese Pieces and good ole M&M;'s. Who can sit down for an intense reading session without favorite treats? I even brewed coffee because coffee always makes reading that much more enjoyable for me. Lol *sigh of relief* I'm so glad I did. You'll need to as well. I mean by page 38, I was hooked and turning the pages with a burning need. Tremble brought back a lot more scenes with Alex (cue heart stopping moments and some swooning on my part. I do love me some Alex) and Brandt turns back up in Tremble as well! I missed him so much in her last installment and re-read the page when he showed back up in Dez's story. So far, as of this moment, Tremble is my favorite book in the Denazen series. The plot twists and emotions that filled the pages were unbelievable. My heart was crushed for Dez when she saw Kale (that was the first rug pulled out from under my feet) and for  while I was convinced that Jus Accardo decided she hated me and her characters.I was sure that Jus had just introduced her climatic plot twist a little early and Tremble was going to follow a direction I just never saw coming. But that wasn't the case at all. Kale and Dez was only the first mind-blowing, heart stopping revelations of many. Every time I was wondering how we got so far down this road, convinced I read something wrong *BAM* she turned it around and I was cheering for Dez and the sixes (of course until I caught my breath and read into the next twist)! Tremble's plot is intricate and woven together beautifully, letting the character's shine and becoming more intense as the story progresses.Kale, Kale, Kale...what can I say about Kale...Ladies, prepare to fall in love again with him. His progression throughout the series has been awesome and only encourages my crush. In Tremble, we get to see Kale in a strong, confident and powerful demeanor. Even though he sheds some of his innocent traits and literally almost becomes someone unrecognizable, in the end, I was blown away by the transformation and wiping up drool.Dez is still a little pistol. I love her fiery attitude, witty remarks, confidence and determination. Throughout the series she's become one of my favorite female leads. I feel like Tremble showed us a deeper side of Dez and an even deeper insight on her line of thinking and how she feels. The poor girl is put through the ringer in this book. If I was her I would have fallen apart completely by page 25. Seriously, the moment with Dez, Alex and Jade at the club has been seared in my brain for a week. Killer. Her emotional turmoil throughout the book kept me up until the wee hours (I mean, I couldn't turn my back on her too).Okay and another reason this book and series rocks my socks off is Jus Accardo's world building. The fact that this is the third book (not including the novellas) and we're still learning new things about their world is really cool. The Underground world and the Denazen just keep growing. The sixes and all their awesome abilities and talents are squeal worthy! You can't help but to get lost in their world and with the plethora of amazing characters Jus fills the stories with will only drag you deeper in and keep the pages turning. I like how all the concepts, facts and tidbits about their world and the rules are blended together seamlessly and never leave me wondering what's going on in a bad way. Because all the twists and turns Jus Accardo takes you on, will leave you freaking out and wondering what the hell is happening!Alas, I cannot praise this book enough without giving away some major spoilers. If you are a fan of books that are written in such a way that you feel so involved with the story that when the character you're reading gasps, so do you--this series is for you. You need to read the first two before reading Tremble, but don't worry, you'll read them in one sitting. Jus Accardo commands your attention and demands you keep reading. Finishing a chapter only means you're one step closer to figuring out what's going to happen but you will turn the page and read "just one more chapter" until the very end. Hence the snack pack, you won't want to get up.I'm so excited to see what book 4 could possibly have in store for us after everything that happened in Tremble. I was shattered, torn and enraged just like Dez throughout the entire read and I'm wishing I could read book 4 right now. Honestly when I started reading Tremble I was slightly nervous. If a series is going to fall apart, as a reader, book 3 is always the indicator. However Jus Accardo wrote the strongest book yet in the Denazen series that will definitely leave you with a book hangover.
