#1 New York Times Bestseller

Set during the events of the New York Times bestseller Powerless, this captivating novella gives fan-favorite Adena a story all her own as she attempts to survive on the streets of Loot…and falls for a mysterious—and dangerous—Elite.

Adena and Paedyn have always been inseparable. Fate brought them together when they were young, but friendship ensured they would always protect each other and the home they built in the slums of Loot. But now Paedyn—an Ordinary—has been selected for the Purging Trials, which means almost certain death.

Now alone in Loot, Adena must fend for herself. After attempting to steal, she’s rescued by a mysterious man from the market. Mak’s shadowy past and secretive power set him apart from the other low-level Elites of Loot. And as the pair team up to see their loved ones before the Trials, the quest tests their loyalty, their love, and their lives.

I did a hybrid read with the audio. The audio cast did a good job.

Event though I knew what was coming this is like THE BEST NOVELA I HAVE EVER READ! . Lauren does slow burns really well. This book had me tearing up. I do have some thoughts on the ending but it was a really good book regardless. Love Lauren’s writing style. This book had so many good quotes! We got to know Adena more and come to a better understanding with her story. I did feel more for her in this book than I did in powerless since we only got a glimpse of her in that book. We got a glimpse at Kitt and Kai in this book too and made us have more of an understanding of how they felt for Pae. The fact that she met Mak surprised me because I never knew she was seeing someone during powerless.

Review of Powerful by Lauren Robert’s

I loved Powerless and Fearless. LOVED. Was actually blown away by how much I loved them. That said, though I knew how Powerful would end, I expected that storyline to be a bit more entwined with the main arc of resistance, court dynamics, etc. I know it’s a novella about two other protagonists, but it felt really separate even though A and P are so close in the first book, and at the end I found myself asking whyyyy I put myself through the pain! I finished the book both frustrated and sad, which probably means it’s written well enough that I should rate it higher. So take this review with a grain of salt— I’m in mourning. Here’s hoping Book 4 gives me some closure, ha!

Salty heartbreak
