KIM'S REVIEW~JADEN by Tijan




Tijan is freaking amazing. That's the only way I know how to start this review. I stayed up until the wee hours of the morning finishing this series. I'm still sorta numb.  I'm not sure how Tijan does what she does. She draws you in and keeps you held captive. You're like her freaking slave. Your mind is constantly on the characters. They're all you think about.

When I started reading this series, I didn't know what to expect.  I should have, but I didn't, because Tijan only puts out great reads. I know that!! She hasn't disappointed me yet.  I never dreamed that the Fabulous Threesome, which consists of Bryce (Team Bryce), Sheldon and Corrigan (loved him too) would capture my heart like they did.  For the past couple of days, they are all I've thought about. Still thinking about.

"I shouldn't have to try to force myself to feel a certain way, and right now, I want to be with him."



It's hard to put into words what I'm feeling about this series because of my emotions right now.  I don't want to give anything away.  I read a review that had given Sheldon's choice in the end away and I was like "what the heck!"  That didn't keep me from reading Jaden though.  Even though I knew who Sheldon chose in the end, the book still took my emotions  on a roller coaster ride from hell.  I fell for both of those boys...hard!!! My heart hurts so much for the one she didn't choose.  

I cried...


I ugly cried...


My heart still hurts but I'm also happy at the same time. Yes, Tijan has gutted me, but how she pulled the series together has me just stunned.  How in the heck can she make you love all her characters like she does? It's a freaking love triangle.  I always have my choice and I root hard for that choice...but this triangle was different for me. I had my choice, don't get me wrong, but I was fine with the fact that if my choice wasn't who Sheldon chose in the end, I knew I would be okay with her decision. My heart was going to hurt for whoever she didn't choose. I knew that was a given. 




"Whoever she chooses is the one she can't be without, but she loves both of us." 

"My fairytale was the neglected princess who fought for her own survival."


If you crave angst, suspense, love, betrayal, and lasting friendships, then this series is for you.  It's my kind of series... I crave it all when I read and this series was exactly what I needed. My book slump is no more!!!   My emotions are running high right now because I'm still on my book high.

Kudos to you, Tijan. You are the Queen and I salute you! Well done!!! 

I give Jaden 5 Crazie Stars!!! ~Kim
