Consequences, Truth and Convicted were three of the wildest emotional roller coasters I have EVER been on in my life. For real. Aleatha Romig is a freakin word genius and I am absolutely blown away at how amazing this series is.Before I started reading Consequences I read a bunch of reviews and I thought it was crazy how some of the people that usually enjoy the books I do LOVED it while the other half of them seemed to HATE it. I decided  the ones that hated it were all the ones that put it on their "put it down for now" lists and didn't give it it's full chance. I'm not saying I don't understand why because for a large part of the first book I was frustrated. I didn't like any of the characters, I was pissed off at what was happening and it just wouldn't give me anything to be happy about. There was so much description of things I didn't think mattered. There were details I thought I could have lived without. Turns out, I was wrong. Yep, WRONG. After reading the entire series I now know that every word that Aleatha writes matters. Everything is there for a reason.While reading Consequences and Truth I felt like I was a complete crazy person. How could I change my opinion about one man so many times? Seriously. Once I thought that I felt one thing I was quickly forced to feel another.With so many unanswered questions left I really had NO idea which turn the last book in the trilogy would take but I must say that Convicted was the perfect ending to a crazy ride. With so many details and so many important parts of the puzzle the craziness of it all turned me into an emotional wreck for days.I'm not kidding, this series, wasn't an easy read. Sure, I couldn't wait to get my hands on book three, I had big plans to plant my butt on the couch and devour it in a night, but when the time came...I just couldn't. I had to read super slow and soak up every word. I had to stop and think about the past twists and turns and evaluate was going on. Eventually, I had to put it down and walk away. My heart and my nerves literally couldn't take the intensity that was pouring off of the pages.When I say these books are intense, I mean it. Aleatha kept this series interesting until the very end. I know people say that all the time, but I don't think anyone knows what it's like to be kept guessing until the VERY end until they have read this series. Sure, some unanswered questions were getting answered and loose ends were being wrapped up all throughout the second half of the last book but the most important question was there until the last few pages. I was pulling my hair out, pacing like a crazy person NEEDING to know what was going to happen!Intense. Amazing. Genius. That's just a few of the words that come to mind when I think of this book, this series and Aleatha Romig. Seriously, I bow down to her ability to blow my mind. Over. and Over. and Over.If you haven't read this series I HIGHLY recommend it. 5 Mind Blowing Stars!
