Beasts of War

Updated to 4 stars! 

Thank you to Penguin Teen for a finished copy to read and review! 

Although this was not the ending I was hoping for this was overall a solid ending to the Beasts of Prey Trilogy. After such a strong build up from Book 1 to Book 2 I was hoping that this final book was going to knock me off my feet. 

You might be asking yourself... “Why did you rate it 4 stars if it's not what you expected?” It's 4 stars because of the experience I had while reading, and at the end of the day the pros outweighed the cons.  

I loved all of these characters! I loved the imagery I can create while reading. I listened to audiobook in the car, and when I tell you I was cackling at things that Ekon did, and the dynamic the group had between each other! I had a time reading and listening to this book. 

I did want to list out my “cons” 
 
Cons: -The romance between Koffi and Ekon felt rushed/strained. Honestly didn't really expected to break threw to a romantic relationship at all. Yes, I know they had feelings for each other, BUT after everything that transpired it felt like Ekon was holding more of the romantic feelings to Koffi. -The epic final fight scene that was being built up for the last 2 books was meh. To compare it to something. The Fantastic 4 movie from 2015 the final fight scene with the bad guy... that's how this felt. Just lacking. -Mekena and Safia felt like as the story progressed they became inferior side characters. Because wdym they're in a secret relationship????
At the end of everything I did enjoy this entire series. Did everything transpire how I hope it did... no, BUT all together this was a fantastic trilogy that I will always recommend :)
