If I Should Die: A Stunning YA Paranormal Romance Finale of True Love and Sacrifice in Paris (Die for Me, 3)

This was one of the best endings to a series I have read. The story picks up right where Until I Die left off. Vincent is gone, and Kate is torn up. However, things quickly go from sad to happy when we find out a piece of good...no, fantastic news. Ms. Plum's writing immediately sweeps the reader to Paris, both captivating and drawing you into the love story and constant action. Ultimately, the story leaves you breathless. There was absolutely nothing I would change about this book...it's that perfect. Kate steps up big time in this book. She fights till the very end to bring Vincent back to her, never giving up. Even though I always appreciated how strong of a character Kate was throughout this series, she is even stronger in this novel. I was rooting for her to figure everything out so that things could be put right. Vincent, what to say about Vincent? Maybe...utterly sexy, fangirl-inducing scream worthy? Just when I thought I couldn't love Vincent any more, he was even better in this novel. I was so depressed after reading the ending of Until I Die, but let's just say, things have a way of working themselves out in the end. Vincent's love for Kate is unbelievably real and something every girl dreams of. My heart broke for Jules in this book, especially after reading Die for Her. His love for Kate has always been so apparent to me that I couldn't believe how blind she was. However, her was the stronger person and and even better man in this book, and while his actions made me tear up, I loved him that much more. I would love to see a spin-off or some more novellas from his POV because not only would it be entertaining and hilarious, but a great addition to the series. The secondary characters were great in this novel as well. No one was left out, and every single character had their shining moments that make a permanent impression on the reader's memory. There are many twists (one of which I predicted since the last book ended), turns, and shocking deaths. You'll laugh, cry, and smile. This entire series has been utterly wonderful and completely original. Thank you Ms. Plum for creating such a magnificent world and characters that I will happily revisit time and time again :) 5+++++ stars

I have loved this series from the beginning. There was something so perfectly romantic about it that had me falling in love hard from the very first pages. It's not the most beautifully written novel, nor is the world the most inventive. But there is something about Kate and Vincent that doesn't need the pretty words in order to weave a romantic and amazing tale. Plum made me fall in love just by writing a fantastic love story. Vincent has just been lost; his body burned, but his soul still on Earth. Kate fears all is lost, that once again, she has lost someone she loves more than anyone else in the world. Her parents' death brought her Vincent, but she can't see what will come for her now. I don't want to give too many spoilers because this is a book you don't want to have spoiled. You want to read every page and want to know what is coming next. Experiencing the highs and lows of this novel was just an added bonus to the wonderful journey I went on. The other revenants play a major role in this novel. There are twists that I didn't see coming that made my gut twist and my heart clench up. I didn't want to stop reading. I needed to know what was coming next and how the story would end. If I Should Die is one of my favorite endings to a series. I'm sad to see it ending, but while I wish I could keep reading about Kate and Vincent, it ended the story perfectly. Loose ends were tied up, my heart is happy, and I'm still in love. The Revenants series is a must read for anyone who wants to be swept up in a timeless romance set in one of the most romantic cities in the world. Be prepared to fall in love from the beginning and only have that love grow as the series concludes.

Thankfully, If I Should Die picks up right where Until I Die left off, after that crazy cliffhanger. I felt like there was a continual stream of action and intrigue, and I felt like the story griped me right away and didn't want to let me go. I loved all the different directions Amy Plum took us on, and all the twists and turns. I loved how in control Kate had to be, and couldn't rely on Vincent to be in charge. He may have all the Revenant history, but this book further demonstrated Kate's leadership prowess and abilities. Their love story is challenged and tested until the end. The secondary characters are tested until the end. Everyone is tested until the end. And the ending was exciting and worth the wait. I appreciate the way the novel ended, giving satisfactory closure yet realism that not everything would be perfect for everyone. But it still left me in a place of hope and direction for the future. I loved it! And, honestly, I wouldn't mind a spin-off book or series following some of the other Revenants, because I loved these characters so much.

Read my full review at [...]. Why You Should Buy It The highly anticipated (by me at least!) third book in the Revenant series. This book is full of twists and turns, mysteries, action, and romance. It is an amazing end to an awesome series. My Thoughts One thing that happens after you read a lot of books is you begin to see patterns and it is easy to predict what will happen. So, I don't know how much credit I can give myself for predicting the bigger plot points of this book, but I gotta say I was pretty excited when the book went in that direction. Another thing that has happened to me after reading the Mortal Instruments and Infernal Devices series is being spoiled by tons of books in one `world'. It was seriously hard to believe that when this book ended there would be no more books on Revenants/Numas. Even if the story isn't focused on Kate/Vincent, I think there is a lot of history and back story there for Plum to continue in this world. So, let's get on with the book -- after all that's why you are here! The book doesn't disappoint. It's actually kind of hard to review this book without a lot of spoilers, but I'll do my best. So Kate has lost (sort of) Vincent. She's heartbroken, pissed, and ready to do whatever it takes to get Vincent back. She faces danger head on to save him and convinces her family and the Revenants to look more into the history of Revenants that was previously lost in time. There are great, heart warming moments and sad, heartbreaking ones. It isn't all happy endings for all characters, but Plum wraps up the series nicely. The final battle was intense and everything I hoped it would be. It had essence of the (movie version) Breaking Dawn battle and the Harry Potter Final Battle at Hogwarts. And Kate as a character is in my opinion a really great role model. She is witty, intelligent, brave, and faces danger head-on. While I'm not advocating teens do what she does, it is great to see heroines like Kate. She also doesn't do the whole Bella Swan thing and needlessly beg to be turned. Gotta have respect for any character in that sense. Overall Four point five out of Five Stars

*SPOILERS******* I Should Die was an amazing conclusion to Amy Plum's Die For Me trilogy.I devoured all three books in the same week (neglecting to do some school work in the process!). The beginning of the book takes off exactly where Until I Die left off. Vincent's body has been taken by Violette in order for her to merge with his spirit and achieve the Champion's power. At this point in the series, I was pretty sold on the fact that Vincent was indeed the champion, which was hinted at a bit in Die For Me and went into greater detail in Until I Die. But then--hold on to the edge of your seats everyone!-- we find out that Vincent is not the Champion mentioned in the prophecy. Cue the dramatic music. As the book goes on, the Paris kindred find a way to re-embody Vincent, and are successful in this attempt. He and Kate are reunited face to face, and begin to plan on how to defeat Violette and her numa army. Plus, they need Bran to identify who the real Champion is before Violette can figure it out. The race against time between the Paris kindred and Violette's numa army is a suspenseful and thrilling adventure. The relationship between Kate and Vincent only grows stronger, as does the relationships among the Paris kindred. With a plot twist to die for, If I Should Die is one of the best books I've read in a long time, and I highly recommend reading this entire series.

Another great ending to a great series. This idea of revenants is different than I have read before and I love the history of them and the back stories of the characters. All the awful stuff in the first two books comes to a head in this one and some amazing things happen that are great and scary at the same time. The out come in the end is something wonderful and left me feeling so happy about their future. You know things wont be easy and there are still things to overcome, but it is very hopeful and positive which I love in an ending. Great job Amy!!!! I highly recommend this series to anyone who loves history, France, romance and sword fighting!

Writing this review was a little sad for me because I know that the Revenant Series has come to an end, but what an awesome ending it was. I have always adored this series and these characters that Amy has created, and now I will always see Paris as Kate and Vincent's city. Kate is such an amazing girl, and in this novel she truly shines. I have admired Kate for her courage, strength, loyalty, and her love for her family and friends, and she kicks ass like always. Vincent Delacriox, how I will miss you. He is so charming, romantic, and ever devoted to Kate. My goodness, that boy gave me dozens of swoon worthy sighs.. This book had plenty of heart stopping, Oh My God, heartbreaking, and heart fluttering moments. It certainly kept me on my toes. I loved seeing Kate go back to New York, those scenes were probably some of my favorites. The ending was wonderful, but I was sad that Jules wasn't around a lot, and I feel like he didn't get any closure. My wishful thinking hopes for a story for Jules down the road because I love the HECK out of that guy. Pretty please Amy...

I really loved Amy Plum's trilogy. Kate is a strong female lead, and I came to care for her as well as every supporting character. Her sister, Georgia, is a riot, and even her grandparents are memorable. Vincent is THE perfect love interest, although Jules is pretty amazing, too. It's hard to write an ending that will satisfy everyone, but I think Amy has done that. Even better, I am left with my imagination to continue the story. That's a great gift to the reader. I highly recommend these books to anyone who likes romance, adventure and a believable fantasy realm.

Se você leu "Até que eu morra" e está DESESPERADO(A) para saber como termina a trilogia dos Revenants, posso dizer que você não vai ficar decepciondo(a). Amy Plum concluiu sua série de estreia com o mesmo esmero com que conduziu toda a história; não há pontas soltas, os personagens são muito bem trabalhos e a trama é conduzida com coesão até um clímax espetacular. Neste volume, acompanhamos Kate e seus amigos Revenants na luta contra os numas, tendo que superar a traição de uma pessoa próxima (não vou dizer quem, caso não tenha lido o segundo - apesar do resumo do terceiro revelar isso) e buscar o Campeão entre os bardias que será de fundamental importância na guerra contra os inimigos. Quando vi o tamanho do livro - mais de 400 páginas - perguntei-me como Amy Plum nos manteria cativos por tanto tempo. Todavia, ela apresenta uma sequência de fatos de tirar o fôlego, além de novos personagens, que nos fazem ficar mais presos ao livro que antes. E vale a pena. E, se assim como eu, você tem medo de últimos livros de trilogias (Siobhan Vivian e Jenny Han, nunca vou perdoá-las pelo que fizeram com a trilogia de Olho por Olho), fique tranquilo. Amy Plum arrasou!

Ho adorato questa saga, che all'inizio avevo preso in considerazione solo per interesse professionale, ma poi mi ha completamente rapita. Pur essendo anagraficamente fuori target per un paranormal da adolescenti, questo è diverso: i richiami culturali, la voce più matura dietro la caratterizzazione dei personaggi, l'inglese non scontato, lo rendono una lettura piacevole e avvincente. Il finale, a chi piacerà e a chi no; io sono contenta, ogni tanto, di arrivare all'untima pagina di un libro e dire "Sì!", perché è proprio come avevo sperato sin dalle prime pagine. Promosso su tutta la linea.

Absolutely adored the series! Having not re-read the second book prior to reading the third, found parts of the story a tiny bit had to follow, and had to recall the events of the previous book. Loved the romance in the book, especially the Charlotte/Ambrose relationship.Truly gripping read the whole way through, read the whole book in 2 days. some of the mystery of the first books is lost, and there is one obvious twist once you learn another fact, but how it will come about is completely unknown.

This was kind of a good sadness, the story is over but you can't help but feel happy. Definitely worth the read!

Musste mir das Buch damals auf englisch bestellen, weil die Deutsche Ausgabe noch nicht draussen war. Super verständlich und einfach ne tolle Story! Ich liebe die Bücherreihe :D <3
