A Cold Legacy by Megan Shepherd

"When you can never die, do you ever really live?" ~Montgomery James. Juliet discovers that Elizabeth Von Stein is tied to Victor Frankenstein who discovered reanimation. Once Edward dies Juliet has to fight with her madness in order to decide whether or not to bring him back to life. Which makes the question above even more important especially in today's society. If we ever discover how to bring back the dead, should we do it? If we never die, do we ever actually live? It's just something to think about in today's society.

A Cold Legacy is the final installment in the Madman's Daughter trilogy and it does not disappoint. Shepherd draws from Frankenstein by Mary Shelley even more in this last novel but still makes it her own. I love how the novel has a little bit of a dark atmosphere but is still about a girl trying to figure out her own path instead of following other people's footsteps. On top of that, it is also about a girl who has suffered from so much but still keeps fighting for herself and her family.

Shepherd filled this last book with so many surprises and twists, it kind of made my head spin. However, I loved every one of those surprises and twists, she really knows how to keep the reader on their feet, which I think is an impressive feat. It is hard to keep reader's on their toes these days. I am extremely impressed with her work and I can't wait to read more from this author.

I hope you guys enjoy this book. Feel free to answer any of the questions above in the comments below. If you have any opinions or thoughts feel free to leave those as well. Have a great day my lovelies!
