Full Review on my blog!

This is the third and final book of this series, and wow am I sad it's over.

This one was even better, I have to say that this third book was my favorite and the perfect ending to this trilogy. 

Truth Changer picks up right where the second book ended, and what a rollercoaster ride! These are some of my favourite characters this year so far, and seeing how their stories would play out, well lets just say, there were a lot of emotions!!

The plot is very clear and and well-built out. The world building is rich, beautiful and well-rounded. I really like the book and loved this series! I definitely recommend checking it out!

Wow what a great conclusion to a great series! So much action, so much drama, so much angst! And so much brilliance... This story captivated me from book one in it's uniqueness. Firstly, I loved that it was set in Africa, with African and Egyptian beauties, a welcome deviation from the norm. A world so imaginative, I was following every detail with reverence, fully engaging with Imara and Naki, ok, also with Abe and Mali and, yeah, all of them. I thoroughly enjoyed how emotive they all are, they wear their emotions on their sleeves and it translates. The authors captures these emotions so splendidly I felt it all.

As Imara slowly regains what she has lost, thanks to Abe, the events around them have spiraled out of control. There are those who want everyone to be tagged for any offence which opens up a whole lot of abuse from others, even violence. Imara and her friends have to stop this from happening. They also have to stop the Carlotta, who shows her true colours, ok, excuse the pun... she's a scheming so and so who doesn't give a rat's ass about anyone other than herself, not even her own brother. To stop her from gaining complete and irrevocable power. Not so easy... they are thwarted at every turn, they are set upon, they are captured, they are tortured and some even die. Yes, this book was very real, real life events that happen to real people and the emotional rollercoaster has my stomach lurching!

Imara and Abe have really come a long way, their relationship solidifying brilliantly. I loved Naki too, she and Imara's sisterly love shines through and Naki shows some real teeth, love it! My big disappointment was in Siluk, just as I thought, huh, he ain't so bad, what he does and did is not on! I loved the different "voices" of the characters, and goodness are they diverse! And awesome. Ms Moody brought a whole new idea to life, the action and actions of her cast members was extremely well played out, we get propelled from one disaster to the next, we get shown how vulnerable the characters can be, we get to see how their resolve and determination carries them, we get to experience the love they feel for one another and we get to indulge our senses to the maximum. There's a scene near the end that is so beautifully tragic, flowers are placed over the rubble in an area where many lost their lives, transforming it from something ugly to something beautiful and cleansing. Everything about this series is beautiful, yeah, even the ugly is beautiful. It's a series I strongly recommend to all

This was an incredible finale. After it seemed like they were going to be able to take out the villains in Healer, a twist revealed an unexpected villain who seemed to have unlimited powers. Imara and her friends are challenged beyond the abilities of their hilas, separated from each other, and faced with the choice: to help the ones being hurt by the new laws or to go after the lawmakers. Sometimes you just have to do both.

I loved how the characters really grew up in this book. They were all faced with their own insecurities and weaknesses, but they learned to face them head on. It's beautiful, really. It's not pain-free. And they don't avoid danger. But unlike entirely relying on their hilas or their companions as in the previous books, the risks are calculated, taken for the greater good after weighing the options. It's a fantastic character progression through the trilogy. As always, I can't wait to see what the author writes next.

I received a free copy of this book from the author and have reviewed it willingly.

Imagine a world where any wrongs you committed were common knowledge and laid bare for all to see. Now imagine having to live in a world where people would judge you solely based on any past crime and there was no redemption allowed to you. This is the world that Carlotta Santini wants and Inara is determined to stop.

The characters are full and rich. They have been tried and tested throughout this series. Rather than giving up they have stuck to their principles and are determined to get justice.

I absolutely loved this series-it takes place in the future but it poses questions that are prevalent in today’s society. Each character has a unique personality and the world building is amazing. The thought and planning that has gone into this story is clear.

Kay L Moody has delivered another amazing tale that I will go back to again and again. It’s quite sad to see it end but it has been a wonderful ride! I definitely recommend this one!!

This book was faster paced, more action, more danger, sadly more casualties. Imara and her friends went from just needing to save some children, to saving a city, to saving the WORLD. Now that Santini is back in the picture, the evil knows no bounds. She seems to have a soft spot for Imara, but does she truly think of her as a daughter, or just wants to manipulate her? Imara has gotten very good at deciphering nonverbal language and picking out tells even without her hila to help her. Her heart has opened and grown and she is a whole new person compared to just months ago. She and Naki are enjoying true sisterhood and both are developing into fuller people. Some devastating losses and betrayals in this book, but Imara earns her "hero" tag. This book was action packed through the end, couldn't put it down!

This was an epic ending to this series. As soon as I finished Healer I went straight into Truth Changer. Each book in the series picks up where the last left off. It kept me captivated from beginning to end.

I love the characters. They have changed and grown so much even though only a short amount of time has passed.

This book is full of twists and turns. Once I started the book I couldn't put it down. Every time you think you know what may happen, something unexpected happens.

I don't think this book could have had a better ending. I can't wait to see what the author comes up with next.

The final book in this wonderful trilogy has a lot to offer its readers. Old adversaries revived, torture, plans galore, sacrifices, deaths, noble deeds, miracles, repaired and broken relationships - it has it all. It moved me to laugh, to cry, to pound my fist in frustration, and to cheer. The author did a great job making me care for the characters. The world is rich and real. I heartily recommend this book as well as the other two in this series for those that like great adventures.

I have to say that this third book was my favorite. For some reason I feel that it has the perfect ending for this trilogy. Imara can finally see her worthiness after so much time without even looking herself in a mirror. Abe's hope is infectious and Imara got so much of it. I feel a little bad about Siluk. Wish for a good ending for him as well.

I received an ARC for my honest opinion.

As anyone who follows me knows, I LOVE these books. The characters and world and hila's. This book was an emotional and adventure packed conclusion to a trilogy I hold near and dear to my heart. I will have a longer review up on my blog soon!

I loved seeing the end of this series. This was a fun fantasy, cheesy love story trilogy. This book was great and I liked it better than number two, but I still love the first one the best.
