The Destiny of Ren Crown

hope

this is gonna be kinda incoherent cause i'm still emotional BUT there we go:

that was!!!!!!!!! talented brilliant amazing showstopping never the same!!!!! 

okay first of all i CRIED SO MUCH (of happiness!!!!!!) with the end because??? i found PURE JOY in the fact that Ren can have her new beginning LIKE SHE DESERVES!!! and i'm especially happy about how SHE'S OWN HER POWER!!!! how she's not afraid of herself and how she Knows she is powerful enough to CHANGE THE WORLD (she will, she already has!!!?¿¿ AKDFJKADF) and she won't let ANYONE come her way and chain her (as she says at the end that really got me crying)

I absolutely love Ren's goal of helping THE WORLD as a WHOLE and making it a better place like, EVERYONE in the world not just the privilege, and not even just human beings (AND LIVING BEINGS!!!) but she's good enough to free objects like??¿¿¿ HOW GOOD CAN SHE GET OH MY GOD I LOVE HER SO MUCH!!! She is the utter best, superior to us all!!! 

Another thing I really love about these books is its political side and how that is driven, wow, honestly hands down, that is SO WELL DONE. All the metaphors for the real world and the struggle people live in... wow, just wow, I really have no words: 10000000/10.

One of the things that most amazes me from these books (THERE ARE A LOT!!!!) is Raphael Verisetti. In the first book I really thought I could never feel emapthy for him (even tho I always try to do that with every character) and then in the last book you can find me crying about how MUCH injustice was done to him and how much he deserved better from the world, I was just so sad. His character is actually really complex and I loved reading about him. ALSO how his friends didn't want to let him go....... that really got me, it was so powerful.

And let's get to my favorite part: THE CHARACTERS AND THEIR RELATIONSHIPS!!!!!!! That is honestly the Most beautiful thing about these books and I can never thank Anne Zoelle enough for them. Every single character has their own arc and is constructed so good, always being their own person apart from the piece they play in the bigger game in the series. All of them have a relationship with Ren, a thread, and not only to Ren but between other characters among them. The connection the bandits share is honestly unique, how they all come together in the end, and their journey of growth... it's just breathtaking.

I was gonna name my favorites but there are A LOT OF THEM. I'll just say that apart from Ren, my most beloved ones are: Constantine, Olivia, Neph and Will (I also wanna do a honor mention to Delia and Mike because they're amazing and deserve it!!!) I guess it's because they're the most closed to Ren (apart from Axer, who I don't usually care for BUT he wasn't that bad in this book ((i think it was his relationship with Constantine that made me like him a little mmmmm)) so there's that) and I got to know them better, but anyway, I REALLY LOVE THEM AND WOULD DIE FOR THEM!!!!
Neph and Will, I loved since minute 1 and I Knew they were pure babies that needed to be protected!!!! They are so smart, nerdy and good, ugh I just adore them so much, every time they appeared I was so happy <3333 Bless them.
Olivia and Constantine,,,,,, that was Different. I can't say I loved them right away because I probably didn't BUT they DID interested me SO MUCH since the beginning, I was so ready to have a lot of content from them AND I GOT IT!!!!!!!! I'M THE HAPPIEST GIRL. I REALLY TRULY LOVE!!!! WITH ALL MY SOUL!!!! characters with a Good development so, you can understand why they hold a Special place in my heart.
I feel like I have to explain myself individually here soooooo there I go:
-Let's start with Constantine, who I immensely love!!! When we met him first, we saw a spoiled rich boy who could get anything he wanted just from being him. Everyone was interested in him, but he was interested in no one. When we get to meet him a little better, we find out that he is ACTUALLY interested in 1 thing and 1 specific person: his revenge in Raphael Verisetti. That opens up his character A LOT, we can see how much he hates him, how he would do ANYTHING to meet his goal, even betraying his entire school. But there was ONE THING he didn't want to do, and that was to hurt Ren, which we see in book 2. There is a clear change in him between book 1 and the end of book 2, and it's thanks to Ren. (I'm gonna get emotional about renstantine here mind me). He is an interesting character since the beggining with his BRILLIANT BRAIN and his mischieves (even though we don't know what they are about), but when he meets Ren, and works with her, LET HER INTO HIS WORKROOM (BIG), and they start being FRIENDS, when he is clear about not being friends with anyone, we can See a change there, and it's absolutely beautiful. He is a person that comes out as bored of the world, cold and not interested in anything but himself, so everyone pretty much leaves him alone, which is his goal, but NOT REN. She sees how brilliant he is, and so she is interested, and she DOESN'T LET IT GO. I'm sure that bothered Constantine a lot at the beggining, BUT when he sees HOW BRILLIANT SHE IS TOO, he is interested too, even when he TRIES not to be. Because no one cared enought to wonder, UNTIL REN. So he lets her in, and she just becomes his favorite person in the world, AND SO HE FALLS IN LOVE WITH HER!!! (I'm so glad he FINALLY TELLS HER IN THIS BOOK BECAUSE IT WAS SO OBVIOUS SINCE A LONGGGGGGGG TIME AGO BUT NOW SHE KNOWS!!!!!!!!!!!! ((this doesn't go here but i got emotional sorry)). WHAT I'M TRYING TO GET AT HERE is: Constantine grows SO MUCH as a person in these 5 books, I can't even find the words to describe how proud I am of him. He went through a lot, closed himself from the world, and found his way back, finally feeling things he didn't allow himself to feel since his mother died, and I just LOVE HIM SO MUCH!!!! BABY BOY!!!!
-NOW I'm gonna talk about my DAUGHTER Olivia Price. I have SO MUCH LOVE for her, I don't think I'm gonna be able to put it into words, but I'm gonna try because she deserves it. She also starts off as a really cold and closed person, which she REALLY was, because she was raised in fear, and when you grow like that, you don't want anyone close, because if someone is close enough, they can hurt you, and she was taught that if they could, THEY WILL. I hate Helen Price with everything withing me, I really do. We see in this book how Stravos had hold of her too, but that wasn't why she is the way she is, she was almost like that before, she IS a bad and terrible person and it makes me so sad that Olivia had to be raised by her, SHE DESERVED SO MUCH BETTER I'M GONNA CRY. I remember in one of the previous books, when this is explored, Ren thinks how sad it is that she wasn't raised in love but in fear, and I 1000000% totally agree, I'm so mad, I hope she is happy right now and for the rest o her life. This topic was extremely personal to me, because I know a thing or two about it, saddly, but what I wanna say here is: thank you. It was amazingly handled and I couldn't be more happy about it. The fact that Olivia grew so much from the frist to the last book, how we saw her slowly responding to Ren afection in book 1, how in book 2 she was SHOCKED of the way Ren's mom treated her, with love, because there was LOVE in their home, and she really wasn't used to it, but WANTED it at the end, how she would sacrifice HERSELF for Ren, because she has come to care SO MUCH about her, even though she wasn't taught to care like that, she learned that BY HERSELF (with the help of Ren first and then the others), how first is Ren, but then she cares about other people too, she opens up and heals herself from the toxic environment she was raised in, how she works in her trust issues, just... EVERYTHING. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS. Her growth means so much to me (I guess I have already say this but I can never say it enough). AND I have to say that her goal to conquer the world is GREAT, her determination, I don't know, she's so complex, ugh, IT AMAZES ME. My queen is doing amazing and I'm so proud.
-I'm gonna add something and is the FACT that Constantine and Olivia relationship development is GREAT, I really live for that. Their interactions gave me life, they didn't trust each other at first, but know they have and Understandment and I think with time, they can be the BEST of friends.

I also gotta say that the Olivia/Ren relationship is the most beautiful lovely and important friendship in the WORLD, they support each other ALL THE TIME and would do anything for the other. I'd like to mention Neph here too, because she is an ANGEL, and love Ren so much, I could cry. These 3 girls are brilliant and love each other and I always want to see this kind of relationship between girls, the world deserves more of these, so thank you so much for them too.

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST!!!!!! Ren/Constantine. I know I meantioned them before but I have to do a special mention to them in the end cause I like to end with my favorite things so, yeah. Their relationship development is quite freaking IMPORTANT, and I'm so happy they happened romantically at the end, because they deserve each other so much!!!! Ren makes Constantine SO HAPPY, he is SO IN LOVE, and she IS TOO, even when she doesn't know, she IS. Their tease is AMAZING, they know each other SO WELL, they CARE about one another SO MUCH, would do anything for the other to be healthy and happy. And I love the fact that they're gonna do EACH OTHER happy for like........ the rest of their lives. I think they really can do that, is such a beautiful concept, I'm gonna tear up. Chapter 29 is soooooooooooo good, when he FINALLY lets her see how he feels, after all the time he's hidden his feelings, pretty probably because he was afraid. UGH. I JUST LOVE THEM SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THEM TOO. 

And I think that's it, it's a mess, and I probably didn't say half of what I wanted to, but there you go. I'm so happy with this book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 29859859235/5 stars.
