Week 8 Review: The Nemesis

From Goodreads:
In the heart-pounding conclusion to the New York Times bestselling Diabolic series, the Empire teeters on the edge of destruction as rumors spread that Nemesis is still alive.

Three years ago, Tyrus Domitrian shocked the universe by killing the woman he swore to love forever. The woman for whom he upended the Empire. The woman with whom he wanted to build a new, and brighter, future.

Now, the once-idealistic heir apparent has become the cruel Emperor Tyrus, wielding his authority with an iron fist, capable of destroying galaxies with a single word, controlling all technology with a simple thought. He has bent the Grandiolquy to their knees, and none have the power to stand against him.

But there is a muttering among the Excess. They say that Nemesis is not truly gone. They mutter of her shadow spotted in distant galaxies. They say that Nemesis lives. That she will rise, and rally the people to topple man who was once her truest love—and is now her fiercest enemy. 

My Review:
I loved reading this book! After the ending of The Empress, I needed to know what was going to happen! Plus this was the ending of the series, so I had to know how it would all wrap up! And it was such a fantastic story!

Nemesis feels betrayed by Tyrus. He killed her, when she was begging for him to run away with her. And the end of Empress has her ready to kill him. This was a wild ride, but it was totally unexpected! Loved where it started and where it went from there! 

There were plots within secrets and secrets within plots, and I loved learning all of them! They were some pretty interesting and important reveals-though some of them did hurt! But loved what they did to this series, and how important they were! 

Ok, I know things are serious. But I laughed out loud, a big belly laugh, at Tyrus's war against the star. I mean it had an important job-to use up all the weaponry, so that the crumbling of the empire had one less obstacle, but I can't stop laughing, because it also was another way to highlight why power shouldn't be in the hands on one person. That one person might be ill-suited for that power. At least this example is a hilarious one, vs one that causes pain, and it's one that makes the transition cause less pain so win win!

Loved reading this book so much, it was a great read even if the ending was bittersweet, it was such a great book!
