Short and Tweet Review: The Rising by Kelley Armstrong

The Rising (Darkness Rising #3) by Kelley Armstrong

Things are getting desperate for Maya and her friends. Hunted by the powerful St. Clouds and now a rival Cabal as well, they're quickly running out of places to hide. And with the whole world thinking they died in a helicopter crash, it's not like they can just go to the authorities for help.
All they have is the name and number of someone who might be able to give them a few answers. Answers to why they're so valuable, and why their supernatural powers are getting more and more out of control.
But Maya is unprepared for the truths that await her. And now, like it or not, she'll have to face down some demons from her past if she ever hopes to move on with her life. Because Maya can't keep running forever.
Old secrets are revealed and unexpected characters make a surprising return in this stunning conclusion to Kelley Armstrong's New York Timesbestselling Darkness Rising trilogy.

    The Rising was on my wishlist because I enjoyed the first three stories and wanted to continue and find out how it turns out for main character Maya.

Tweet Review:

    I skimmed some sections that felt slower paced, and the conclusion shocked me though it did wrap it up. Still glad to have read the series. 

My question to you, my lovely readers:
What animal would you pick to shape shift into if you could?
