Rating: 5 out of 5

Destruction (Book 5) ended with a major cliffhanger and luckily, Devastation (Book 6) picks up right where the previous left off. The situation is dire and no one knows what to do. Quin and Layla face some extraordinary obstacles and burdens in this installment. They also experience love and pain like never before. Like in Destruction, new characters are introduced; some prove to be unlikely allies while others prove to be threats. There are also characters from Destruction that end up playing critical roles in Quin and Layla’s lives.Through most of this book, both Quin and Layla are in a very dark place in their lives. I constantly found myself on the edge of my seat wondering if they will have the strength to survive or if their tragedy will permanently break them. They endure constant emotional waves of depression, anger, guilt, regret, and mourning throughout the story. Deaths and casualties are unavoidable and plenty; some who deserves it while others whose lives are unjustly sacrificed.This book took me on a painful and heartbreaking emotional roller-coaster. The title of this book says it all so get those tissues ready! You will feel every single emotion there is to feel and each one will hit you with fierce intensity. As usual, there were twists and turns I never saw coming and they blew my mind! I’m already anxiously awaiting the next installment and I cannot wait to see the continuation of this extraordinary couple’s journey. Book 7 cannot get here fast enough! This series is absolutely AMAZING so go read it!!Note: This is not a standalone book. Be sure to read the books in The Mystic Series in order: Descension, Impassion, Deception, Retribution, Destruction, Devastation.
