REVIEW: Oubliette by Megg Jensen


Oubliette (Cloud Prophet Trilogy #2)

Reychel thought she was finally free. She was wrong. Everyone saw her gift of prophecy as a blessing, but her gift is uncontrollable. No one alive can teach her to manipulate her unique gift and the answers she needs lie buried within a madman’s journals. She’s thrust in the midst of a brewing war and the only uniting factor for her people is their belief in the Prophet.


Will Reychel learn to control her gift or will she be forced to deliver a false prophecy that could lead her people into a violent war?


Surely Gabe and Lea will figure out that they are meant to be together....




NOTICE: THIS IS A SEQUEL FOR ANOTHER BOOK. THERE MAY BE SPOILERS FOR THE PREVIOUS BOOK.

MY THOUGHTS
This is a very interesting fantasy/dystopian series! I enjoyed the first book and I enjoyed this one as well.

Reychel has been a slave all her life and now she's finally free. But is she really? There's a prophecy about a prophet that will save all their people, and Reychel is believed to be that prophet. Except she doesn't know how she can help. Every time she looks at the clouds she doesn't get any visions at all. And now she'd being pressured to deliver a false prophecy. How can she lie to everyone?

I thought this was a very good sequel and I applaud the author at her world-building and character development. I really think that Reychel has grown a lot since the first book and I can tell that she will be growing more as the series continues.

What is most interesting is how surprising this book is. There are many plot twists throughout this book, none of them expected.

IN CONCLUSION
Overall, I enjoyed this book as much as the first. It's a really quick read, under 200 pages. If you liked the first book, you should definitely pick this one up. As far as continuing the series, I hope to pick up the next book soon!

I hereby give this book
3.5 Wheels
Meaning: I liked it, but it wasn't quite amazing
