Hey guys! Happy Friday. This is going to be my review of the third Doon series novel Shades of Doon. This book is... wow. I have so many feelings, feels and I will try to convey them as coherently as possible. So, this book starts off a little bit after where Destined for Doon ended. Thank goodness because I would have cried not knowing exactly how Vee made it out alive of her collapse. That's my homegirl and I nearly had a heart attack when I read the final pages of the second book. Anyways, this book. This book. I loved it so much.

So, Veronica and Mackenna are thrust out of Doon by you guessed it, the Witch O' Doon. Now back in the world they were born in, they immediately want to find a way back to the world they felt they were meant to be in. Though briefly separated, these best friends find each other, along with their handsome Doonian beaus and are determined to get back to the land of Doon before the Witch O' Doon takes over. When they do their troubles aren't over.

This book. Oh it was a roller coaster of emotions. Accurate description inserted:
Yeah that was pretty much me. Writhing on my dorm bed, running late for work when I finished this book. It literally blew me away. This is by far the best in the series, each book keeps getting better and better. So many perfect moments. SO MANY. From Duncan and Kenna being cuties to Jamie and Vee showing up everyone mean spirited person Vee went to school with. UGH. As always the writing was so fabulous I felt like I was right there with these ladies.

I get sucked in so deep with this book and the other two that are currently out in the series. I am so sad that this is book three out of four and will forever cry when I finish Forever Doon because I know that something truly magical has ended. Even if it lives on in the minds of new readers.

You guys this is a must read. If you haven't read the first two, go read them! It's worth your while and your local library probably has them if money is an issue (or you can pop a squat at your local bookstore and just read them there but they might get mad if you try and have a solo sleepover in their store haha). If your library doesn't have them, request them. Libraries usually have a page online to request the book and they probably have a form you can fill out at the library too.
