Review:
5 Stars
"I don't want to be Jeremy Mason anymore. Jeremy Mason has hit rock bottom."
Where to start... *sigh*
This book is a short, dark, and intriguing read that put me through quite the emotional ringer. Being the masochist that I am, I actually read it in one sitting. Even though I was very tired and sleepy after a long, long day, I couldn't stop reading!!!
First off, this is a sequel, so you HAVE to read Tracks first. Trials picks up the story line like 2 years? after Tracks ended. Dylan is now in her third year of Law School, about to begin her internship.
"I understand that this moment is another trial for me - one I'm about to fail."
I really can't say much about the plot in Trials -- anything and everything will spoil it. I'm going to sound vague about certain things, but once you read the book, you'll completely understand.
I have to admit, I wasn't Dylan's #1 fan in this book. I did feel bad for her, but she kept going back and forth...back and forth, regarding Jeremy, whom I loved since book one.
"My life, my mind...even my music is consumed by you." - Jeremy
The suspense in this book had me turning the pages wanting to see how Jeremy's case unraveled. Just when I thought things were looking up for him, BAM, something happened. There was one scene, at around 70% that just shattered me. It was, in my opinion, the most heart wrenching scene in the book. There was so much emotion, passion, heart break.... *deep sigh* Like I said, it shattered me.
"My mind, my heart, my soul... it's all yours."
Even though I truly loved this book, I feel like there were a few scenes (mind you - they were like TWO) that might have been rushed...but maybe it's just me. Other than that, I think everything was right to point rather than dragged out, which is a major plus. I absolutely LOVED how Trials ended. I really enjoyed reading that final chapter and even more so, the Epilogue. I swooned a few times and ended up with a HUGE smile across my face.
If a book can evoke certain emotions out of you, then it usually means it's very well written. Trials did just that to me and more. After I finished reading it, I found myself sitting on my bed, going over certain scenes in my head.... re-living them.... letting it all blissfully sink in. This is why I'm giving Trials by Sarah Biermann 5 STARS. I recommend this series.
"It was a struggle to get here, but nothing wonderful is ever easy. Even if it's not perfect, it's still my version of heaven."
