The Hunt

urbangirlreview - What I liked: 1. The Hunt was better then the first book. 2. I definitely like the set-up for the third book. It will be an epic final book with everything coming to a head. 3. The characters were likable in The Hunt compared to The Cage were everyone was kinda going crazy and honestly just weren't very likable. The only person I was interested in or liked in the last book was Cassian even when he lied to Cora. Also, Cora was just okay in the last book, she didn't stand out to me as being anything special. But, in the newest book, The Hunt, all the characters really worked together and were more engaging to read about. 4. One of my problems with the last book was the lack of world building (I know they were in a cage/habitat, but still) so to my enjoyment the Kindred space station was explored more in this book. What I didn't like: 1. Still slow at time. I remember the last book being slow to build up to the action and it was the same in this book. The beginning and end were fast-paced but the middle was sluggish in movement. 2. I know other people mentioned this too but it was hard to engage/connect with the book at times. Probably due to the slowness of the book. 3. Cliff hanger. I'm not normally bothered by cliff hangers but the book was just starting to pick up and then it ended. So, I was disappointed by the ending. Overall, I would still suggest reading The Hunt and The Cage if you haven't already. On a scale of 1-10 of anticipation for the third book, I'm a 6 on the scale. * Thank you to Edelweiss and Balzer & Bray for the chance to read this book.
