I seriously think this trilogy is massively underrated and that more people should read it, because honestly? It's leagues above most other YA fantasy. I love this series and Firestarter was a fucking amazing finale to this trilogy that solidified it's place in my all time favorites list. I hope she's fiercely writing so we all get another magical treasure from her. I know I'm a broken record on this one but I really do adore it and cannot wait for Sim to release more books! If this is what she can do with her first YA trilogy I can't even begin to imagine what her next might be like. Each character that finds love, dies or discovers a new life by the end of Firestarter has a purpose and tells a morale that Sim has chosen. The choices made by Sim of those who do or don't make it are well placed. But have some tissues ready because, like any good series, everyone does not make it. All three books feel cohesive across each novel and at no time did it feel like there was filler.īe prepared. Or at least she faked it well if she didn't (lol). I love that it's clear that Tara Sim had the whole story thought-out in advance. The entire story arc begins in the first 100 pages of Timekeeper (book 1). This is one trilogy where it's really important to read all three books in order.

I can't say much here about Firestarter as it is the third in the series. It has so many amazing elements: gods, weird time, gay boys in love, great friendships, spirits, magic (of sorts), terrorists, family and a cast of characters to adore. Those two things alone are indicative of how much I love this series.

I even almost came to tears twice near the end which is really not like me. Yes I took forever to read this as I savoured every bit of it.
