Series Review: The Suitable 'Verse by R. Cooper

Greetings and welcome to Reviews That Burn: Series Reviews, part of Books That Burn. Series Reviews discuss at least three books in a series and cover the overarching themes and development of the story across several books.

But the fae might be pulling more strings than the nobles realize and they definitely have their favorites. A series of love stories loosely centered around the political crisis that led to the current ruler, featuring oblivious librarians, crafty though loving kings, an innocent half-fae noble, a legendary outlaw turned conqueror, worried warriors, clever guards, and an infamous beauty.

Animorphs Book 27: The Exposed by K. A. Applegate

A force interferes with the Chee and the #Animorphs must race the clock to find the Pemalite ship. Meeting Drode, we learn how much Crayak hates Jake & is fascinated by Rachel. Rachel's claustrophobia is more pronounced, Tobias braves the water.

I'm appreciating how much more complex Rachel is, much earlier than I appreciated previously. If you had asked me when Rachel's character became more complex I would have named a book we haven't reached yet. I'm excited, because I liked the later parts of her storyline from previous readings, so it's nice that I'm appreciating the earlier sections this time through. Tobias and Rachel's friendship/relationship moves along a little, but they haven't reached an equilibrium yet and it's still uncertain where things will end up.
