Visions in Silver Final
This book ended in such a happy way and it made me feel actually good to finish the book. Not because I was sick of reading it because I’m glad I read it all and stuck through it no matter how much it annoyed me. Overall I wasn’t too happy with the story but around the whole market fight scene part of the story I really got into it and it all started to connect. This book ended with a cliffhanger but I expected that since there’s more books after. I am interested in this world and I want to read the whole series to see how things got to this point and what happens after this part in the story. There are still unanswered questions and parts of plots that aren’t fully finished and I want to read the other books to find them all out and see where this leads everything. “She stood in one of the photographs…” (474). When I read how Hope went outside for the first time I was glad she didn’t panic and he didn’t refuse to let her see the outside. This is a big step for her to see photos and then just go outside and see it. I wonder how it must have felt to see such beauty and not freak out for her. I feel bad for Monty and Elayne. She died regretting she didn’t spend more time with him, regretting leaving and learning dark truths about the HFL movement and about her mother. I believe the brother did kill her and everything she says is true and I hope Monty gets justice for her death.
I thought the story was very intriguing, as well as the diverse characters. However, I did find Anne Bishop's cryptic writing style hard to follow. It was almost as if she went in to way too much detail and didn't leave the readers imagination to connect the dots. The pages were packed to the gills with information. Bishop made damn sure every character was used to its full potential. I am thinking about reading the other books in the series as well. The way Bishop has a couple heavy story arcs, with other lighter arcs sprinkled in left for a pretty fleshed out book. Overall, despite all of the hate it got from class, I thought it was worth the read.
