Review: Amazing Final Chapter in one of the best Trilogies I've ever read
Rating: 5 out of 5

Entire Series Rating: 5+You know when you have that author you can't stop gushing about? B. Kristin is one of those authors for me. I absolutely adore her and her words.  She had originally won me over with her standalone debut novel To Stand Beside Her.  For a while, I gave up on Vampires, Werewolves and the whole lot. Until B. Kristin told me she was coming out with Legend of The Blue Eyes.  I'll admit, I was a little shy, but I had complete faith in B. Kristin, and her writing. I absolutely DEVOURED the book and was ready for book 2, (Becoming the Legend) before it was released. Then I read book 2, and well let's just say... it did NOT disappoint. Sometimes sequels can be fillers, and kinda drawn out, but this was definitely not the case. A little while ago,  I got an email from B. Kristin telling me that the 3rd book was available, and that I could get it.What did I do?! I legitimately stopped everything I was doing to download this book and read it. I was actually taking a break from reading another book, to get some socialization in, lol. I still haven't finished that book yet... Oops! Sorry, but when it comes to certain authors, I do play favorites. Don't judge me... cause y'all know you do it too!! Once again, while reading Winning the Legend, I devoured it. Being the last book in the trilogy, I was overwhelmingly sad to see the end of such a beautiful story.  Immediately I was immersed back into the Night World with Arianna and the rest of the crew.  It's funny, I didn't think I could actually miss a character, but I did.As I don't want to spoil any one of the books for anyone, I won't talk about the storyline.  Yes, this makes it incredibly hard for me to write the review.  I WANT to tell you everything, believe me.  I get so excited and so animated when I talk about books I love, and I LOVE this trilogy. Everything was just perfection.  Laced with angst, laugh out loud moments, witty banter, heart stopping anxiety, shooting eye daggers, and heartfelt tears - Winning the Legend gives you the ultimate feels.I couldn't imagine the novel ending any better than it did, either.  There's always so many different was that an author can go with an ending.  I left this novel completely satisfied, and that's what I look for in a series. The Blue Eyes trilogy really leaves no stone unturned. Every question is answered, and you just come full circle, with B. Kristin's writing.  I can't get over what a beautiful story this was, and I truly hope that everyone whether they like vampires and the lot or not - Read this. This reads with enough sophistication, that it doesn't quite feel like a YA novel, but has the relate ability to the young adult crowd. I honestly recommend this to EVERYONE. B. Kristin is truly one of a kind. The world she came up with and put into a story is just beyond my comprehension of imagination. I'm in complete awe of this series and I can NOT wait for her next works.  Spectacular series, that puts other Vampire / Night Human novels to shame.B. Kristin, I can't thank you enough. Not just for your translation of words, but your kindness and genuine devotion to your stories.  Please don't ever stop writing, you'll always have a fan here! NY Times Bestsellers list Here we come! (and by that I totally mean YOU!)
