Like you though, I'm still thinking about and amazed at the relationship between Kami and Jared. It was beautiful and deep and truly provocative. Plus, I completely agree with you - it was SO intimate without any romance! I can't wait to see how their relationship changes in the sequel and I'm SO excited for it to release!

You've captured ...I love this review, Keertana! You've captured Unspoken pretty perfectly. I couldn't agree more that this novel would have fallen apart so easily in the hands of another author. There were so many aspects that are things I usually hate, but in Brennan's hands they were overshadowed by her capacity for depth, story, and characterization. I'm still marveling at the relationship between Kami and Jared. I love that it was never really romantic, but at the same time was much more intimate than any YA romance could possibly be. It was scary and beautiful at the same time. I'm so sad that Jared is so broken, and I really hope Kami is able to instill some confidence and trust in him in the future.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00416898799044848769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523300192245025551.post-5204966206226312532012-09-17T17:05:41.522-04:002012-09-17T17:05:41.522-04:00Oh gosh I was going to wait patiently until I got ...Oh gosh I was going to wait patiently until I got back from my trip before buying a copy of this, but your fab review has seriously tempted me in getting a copy right away!
