Book Review: Immortal Magic (The New York Shade #3)

Immortal Magic (The New York Shade, #3)

Immortal Shade

D.N Hoxa

Overall: 3/5

Plot and themes: 3/5

Characters: 3/5

Writing style: 3/5

Attention-grabbing: 4/5

Sin has unique magical gifts that puts her into unique magical situations... most of which include someone trying to arrest or kill her. She saved her best friend from a life time of magical dampening but at the expense of that friend's safety. Now, she has to figure out how to protect her, avoid Damian, and how this is all related to the Uprising.

This is the third book in the New York Shade series, and you'd think after having nearly three books together maybe Sin and Damian would know how to communicate with each other. But also if you thought that you're literally dead wrong because they would rather die than talk an issue out.  The ending of this book is particularly frustrating cause like there is modern technology in this book so why can't we pick up phones and talk to people??? It seems so obvious yet is so difficult. 

A decent addition, still a fun series to read. But these middle books are more frustrating than anything else from the romance perspective. A ton of backtracking and a truly circular narrative. The actual conflict is cool but could also use some more development. I don't hate it but it's not crazy unique.
