Man, oh man, how I wanted to give this more. Heck, how I wanted to like this more. I love John. I love Tohr. I love Wrath and all the other guys. But Tohr and Autumn, I just couldn't get into it. I didn't like him loosing Wellsie but I could see how it would bring a new dynamic and I liked how it developed John's story. I liked the angel and Tohr on his own wasn't so bad but the relationship....I just couldn't get into it. They were very muted and lost a bit in the story of everything else going on and it just didn't fit. Also, and I could be wrong here, but I don't think time wise it's been all that long since Wellsie died. I would think, given how devoted in the mating and in love the guys get to their shellans and the fact that they live a good 1000 years or so, he'd need a good 50 or so years before looking at another mate. I mean, he was with Wellsie for what, 150 years??? (something like that) I actually was really hoping that at the end, he would do the Fade ceremony and then stay single. I think Tohr on his own would have been great, and Autumn coming to really accepting herself and loving herself and being on her own would have been great too. Together, not so much for me.I did like Wrath getting shot, lol. Not that I don't like Wrath, but I thought it was a nice twist.
I did not like Qhuinn going out alone. No way do I see John not going out with him and I'm not sure Qhuinn would do it anyway(as in leave John). I think this was a problem with character and the fight itself. If someone was going to make that move it would have been V with the other two aiding inside. V would have been a surer bet but then Xcor would be dead and there goes your enemy too soon. I think it was just bad fighting choreograph at play. I'm not saying Qhuinn shouldn't be a hero and save the kings' life and all, its just the way it happened that was very off putting. Okay, and maybe I do find it a little early for Qhuinn to be toting a hero mantle. Also, changing the laws to get Qhuinn into the brotherhood when John, who has the blood in his veins like Butch but hasn't been inducted, is just screwy, and Qhuinn is one of my favorite characters.
I didn't like John's character this book. Maybe that's just me. He's also one of my favs but this book, I found the whole fighting between him and Xhex way out there. John knew who he was mating. I don't see him reacting this way. I also found her reaction a bit over the top as well and really, they already more or less had this in John's book. This felt like a way to create some added tension and maybe try to continue the thread of John's story since it's been going on since book 2 (or 1 if you want to get technical) and with it being Tohr's.....I don't know. It was just messy and unbelievable to the characters I have been reading over the years.
I can't really recommend this one. I can see that Ward is trying to do some serious weaving of plots and things but I'm just not...it's not there for me. The characters and stories are off, the plot lines are continuing to fall apart, as is the once awesome story telling.

Lover Reborn Number 10 in series Black Dagger Brotherhood Series Book 11 eBook J R Ward Reviews
I am a big fan of this series so I hate to give this book only 3 stars but I just didn't like it as much as some of the earlier books. I noticed that some reviewers complained that there was not enough focus on Tohr and Autumn, Tohr's love interest in this book, but I didn't mind this aspect of the book because I liked catching up with the older characters and I liked the way the plot sets up the next book. I have been waiting for Quinn and Blay's story forever, so I can't wait to dive into it!
There were definitely parts of the book that I liked. I like the characters Xcor and Throe, they're bad guys but they're also complex and have lots of layers. I loved the subplots with John and Xhex, they really are my favorite couple in the book. Watching them work thru their issues re Xhex bring a warrior was a nice homage to the tensions we all face when women have careers outside the home.
The scene where everyone is preparing for Wellsie's memorial service is heart wrenching and one of the best scenes in the whole book hankie alert these scenes will have you tearing up if not outright sobbing!
So I clearly liked the book so why 3 stars? For me, parts of the story dragged in the middle and some parts of the story just didn't seem plausible to me. Without giving anything away, the ending was wrapped up a little too neatly it began to betray who we understand the characters to be or betrayed the plot development itself. For example, I liked Lassiter, the Angel, a lot but don't like his plot line at the end of the book.
JR Ward is a great writer. That can't be denied. Her plots are absolutely inventive and for the most part I really enjoy her books. Her dialogue in particular is great. she has a real way with language that makes the books come across as just the right combination of otherworldly and man-cave.
Lots of things to like about this one, and my rating, even though I did have a few things that irked me is based on the fact that JR Ward is just SUCH a damn good storyteller. You just want to keep reading, even if there are a few places or a few aspects you might wish were different about this character or that. The band of bastards stuff was good. I enjoyed the stuff with Layla, and like the conflict that is developing as the Chosen are developed as a group that is more than just cookie cutter females in white robes who say yes, master and offer their wrists. The tortured triangle between Blay, Qhuinn and Saxton was actually quite good and for the first time I don't hate these characters. They really nauseated me in earlier books when they were younger and stupid.
The cons of this book (spoilers) JM and Xhex... didn't think there was much new there, Xhex is too headstrong and JM is freakishly overprotective, and it's so soon after their book ended. Plus, we have seen SO much JM in all the books since book 2 that I honestly am okay with never seeing him again outside of random mentions. And that really brings me to my next (and biggest complaint... too much time is spent on the new characters. I realize why that is the case, narratively, but the original Brothers are the reason I feel invested and the reason I want to keep reading. With regards to the Tohr/No'one relationship (Autumn just never grabs me, so I think No'one is a much more appropriate name for her), there isn't any spark between them. Nothing personal.
