I can't say this was my favorite installment, but it was an okay read.

After the Storm (Clarity #4) By Loretta Lost

After the Storm (Clarity #4)After the Storm by Loretta Lost
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This was an okay read in the series, but I'm glad it was back to they're normal length. The last one dragged quite badly in areas for me, but this one managed to keep my interest just enough throughout that it didn't drag.

The ending to this one was nice, although it seems a bit silly to do it in this one, considering there's a book five.

Overall, An okay read.

Bryn was an okay character, but again, I didn't love her.

The second book in the series was an improvement on book one, so I was hoping this would be an improvement too. Unfortunately though, I thought quite a bit of this dragged, and I felt bored for a lot of it. I ended up enjoying it about the same as book one.
