About this ebook

In this dramatic conclusion to the Shade trilogy, Aura and Zachary’s relationship sizzles as the secrets of the Shift are revealed.

Life can change in an instant, and no one understands that better than Aura. It’s been almost a year since her boyfriend tragically died. She’s finally letting go of Logan’s violet-hued ghost, but not her search to uncover the truth about her past.
     As the first in a generation that can see ghosts, Aura is convinced she has a connection to the Shift. She’s trusted Zachary, ever patient and ever by her side, with all that she knows. But when the government threatens his life in an attempt to learn Aura’s secrets, she will stop at nothing to protect herself and the one she loves…even if that means betraying her own heart.

    Cover Impressions: Meh. Not feeling the sleepy stare or washed out color.

    The Gist: In Shine, Aura and Zach set out to solve the remaining mysteries of the Shift. Their efforts are hampered by the interference of the DMP, who are willing to go to extreme lengths in order to maintain control of both the ghost population and the teenagers that can see them.

    Review: Boy oh boy, was this one ever hard. I really enjoyed the first two books in this series, but this one left me bored. Perhaps, part of the blame lies in the timing (I started the book just before returning to work after a year of maternity leave) but the rest has to lie with the book itself.

    For a good chunk of this novel, Zach was being held by the DMP. With him out of the picture, I should have been able to see some quality Aura time and important development in the secondary characters. Instead, I got to watch Aura whine and her friends serve as little more than chauffeur or confident (allowing Aura to whine some more about Zach).

    When they couple were finally reunited, I was treated to a vomit inducing love-fest as they discovered that sex was the most mystical and magical activity in the entire world. And, of course, being connected the way that they are, it was SUPER SPECIALLY MAGICAL and we needed to be reminded over and over and over. The frequent sex sessions (or the whining over not being able to touch each other for a few hours) interrupted an already suffering plot.

    I found it difficult to keep the bad guys straight in this one. In the previous novels, we had one big bad government agency. In this one, it seems like there are multiple mysterious entities that want to use/kill Aura and Zach. I am normally fine with a little government conspiracy theory, but this one was incredibly confusing with the number of players and, eventually, I just stopped trying to figure out who was doing what.

    This series was never really one that I would put in my classroom, however the sexual behavior is seriously amped up in this installment and I definitely would not recommend it for my junior high students.

    This book was really good. It ended the trilogy perfectly. I love all the characters, and that's important in a book. Jeri did a great job with the whole trilogy. Aura is a strong character, and i loved her. I also love Zach of course, but i loved Logan too!I love the true love between Zach and Aura. I wonder what's going to happen in the future. If you didn't even read the first book yet, pick it up, you don't know what your missing. It wasn't my favorite series but I really enjoyed it. I never read anything like this before. Jeri-Smith Ready is a great author, and i look forward to seeing and reading more work from her. Overall, read this series because it is amazing!

    JOY. JOOOOOOOOOY, for I have finally finished reading this. Just joy. 

    It was pretty awful from start to finish. It was 15% plot and 85% angst, melodrama, and nonsense. I'm only going to make a few quick points, because this book has already consumed too much of my life and I just want this to be over. 

    - As I roundabout stated in one of my status updates, classified information about a major event perpetuated by a super-secret agency is easily gleamed by our too-lucky heroine at a baseball game. Yah. She and some other secret agent just sit nearby the two clucking hen secret agents and listen to them talk about classified crap. How motherfucking convenient. 

    - A ridiculous amount of time is spent talking about Zachary, missing Zachary, loving Zachary, wanting to shag Zachary, actually shagging Zachary,  worrying about Zachary, wondering about Zachary, trying to protect Zachary, trying to find Zachary, finding Zachary, etc./Zachary, etc./Zachary, etc./Zachary.  In book #2, I really liked Zachary. In this book, I just wanted Zachary to die, so Aura would SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT ZACHARY. I know you love dude, but there has to be more to your universe, Aura!  Oh wait...

    - Leftover sadness, love, and blah, blah, blah about Logan, whom passed on in book 2, but whose memory must be inserted everywhere possible in book 3, so that we can feel angst and more angst. Whatever. Shut up. 

    - Why? Why do random people, who have no business hooking up, keep hooking up?! There are certain lines you do NOT cross and this is the second book where lines have been crossed. In book 2, Aura and Dylan hook up. Fucking gross and also, how dare you? Dylan, Aura is your dead brother's sole reason for existence! How could you cross that line? Aura, you're gross for hooking up with the little brother of your dead boyfriend, whom you purport to have loved immensely. wtf. The worst part was that all the other characters thought nothing of it, as if this was totally normal and acceptable. Anywho, that was book 2. In this book, there was one little comment inserted in the middle of some other shit that instantly tipped me off about what was to come, but how and why would you go there?! Dylan hooks up with Megan after a painful breakup with his older brother Mickey? WTF kind of leftover-snatching douchebag is Dylan? We never even hear from Mickey again and Aura sees nothing wrong with this jerky, douche-y hookup. Whatever. I'm done. 

    This book sucked. The first two were pretty good, though not great, but this book was trash. It took me forever to finish, because I never wanted to pick it up. I'd do anything to avoid reading it, but I couldn't DNF it, because I really wanted to know the outcome of, ya know, that pesky PLOT that would occasionally get in the way of all the nonsense. It didn't wrap up until the veeeery end and even then, it was a lackluster wrap-up with a lot of loose ends, like people that were important in the story who never got another mention. So, we're basically left to guess. Screw you. Enough. 

    I was gonna be nice and give this 2 stars, but after writing all of this, 1 star for you ! Vamoosh, awful book! Vamoosh!

    I want to start by saying this was a perfect ending to this series. It answered any and all questions I had but didn't fail to have me on pins and needles throughout the book. Speaking of answering questions, Jeri really surprised me. Although I knew that Logan wasn't in the book, I was sad to think about an entire book without him. It definitely made me upset. In the end, one of my questions were "What's a book in the Shade series without Logan?!" But it didn't seem to be without him at all. It was as if he was there and watching over everything. Just like how a person who passed away in real life would do. What I like most about Shine though, is the fact that it belongs to the main character. In Shade we see so much of Logan. Both alive and as a ghost. Then in Shift we see a lot of Zach as their relationship grows stronger. But in Shine, we see how she grows and realizes what she needs to do for herself and for her and Zach to be together. Aura is one bold and amazing main character and I loved everything about her and her world. With Shine picking up right where Shift left off, you won't feel as if you've missed anything. Shine is a perfect ending to a series that will forever be a part of me.

    This is the third and final book in the Shade series by Smith-Ready. This book was very well-written and did a very satisfying job of wrapping up the series. I enjoyed it a lot.Aura has finally let go of Logan and is looking forward to time with Zachary. Of course Zachary is returning home overseas...that is until his plane crashes and the government seizes him. Now with the DMP threatening Zachary’s life and the government poised to pass a draft law to force post-shifters to work at the DMP, Aura is even more convinced that she needs to figure out the tie between her, Zachary, and the Shift. With Zachary’s life in the balance and her friends’ freedom at stake she will stop at nothing to find out the truth.This was a very well done conclusion book. It totally starts with a bang, I mean Aura finds out Zachary’s plane has crashed in the first couple pages. From there on the book just took my breath away. Things happen so fast and so much is at stake.Aura is an excellent character; she is loyal and steadfast, smart and tough...yet she comes off as so realistic at the same time. Things really sizzle between her and Zachary; they have some wonderful scenes together. They also go through some truly heartbreaking events that had me absolutely aching for them.I really enjoyed watching Aura and Zachary work together to piece together the mystery behind the Shift. The work they started in the second book continues into this book. The explanation behind why the Shift happened is incredibly interesting. Added to this mystery is the twisted government conspiracy entwined with the DMP. There are some great twists and turns in the story as well.The book is very well-written, very readable, and incredibly engaging...I had a hard time putting this book down. It does a great job of summing up this story in a way that is satisfying and complete.Overall an excellent ending to this series. The characters are well done, the story very interesting, the writing incredibly engaging, and the world is super creative. I especially recommend this to fans of paranormal books featuring ghosts. The whole series is highly recommended to fans of YA paranormal; this is one of the better YA paranormal series out there.

    I read this book with a bit of sadness knowing this would be the last book for Aura and Zachary. And man, the first chapter already had me crying. Logan finally says goodbye. What, you knew he would, but it's very bittersweet for both of them. And us, whether you were Team Logan or Team Zachary, unless Jeri Smith-Ready pulled a miracle out of her pen, Logan wasn't going to be winning the girl. He had her, he messed it all up, and he lost her. Now it's time to let go and let her get on with her life. It's also hard because Zachary and his family are on their way back to Scotland having been deported. Aura is really alone. Then, tragedy strikes and things get out of control and Zach disappears from everyone's life. They know where he is, but no one can see him and they can't get him released. And Aura is in as much or more danger from the DMP than ever. A lot of this book takes place with Aura and Zach apart from each other. Aura tries to figure out the Shade/Shift thing while trying to figure out how to get Zach back. Her aunt does all she can to help but the DMP is formidable.There are a lot of endings and beginnings of relationships in this novel and maybe it all has to do with Logan's death, how much it changed everyone's life and plans. Mickey just isn't the same without him. Dylan seems to sometimes want to take his place with Aura, but they know there is nothing but friendship between them. And then when Aura finally gets to see Zach, she finds a shell of the former Zach, a haunted boy, instead of the shining, happy Zach. And she doesn't know how to get him back.I loved that Zach was damaged in this one. Aura had been damaged in the first book and Zach had been the strong one. They were somewhat more equal in the second book, growing as a couple. But in this book, Zach needs Aura. And she knows it. Video Chats aren't going to help she has to be with him. And that's the other thing Jeri Smith-Ready does really well. Those awkward first moments. The first time.Just enough information, but not like we were prying. Even providing some levity to the situation. And then the need to touch each other and kiss and reassure and feel each other again and again after that first time. But there was more than that. There was so much real love written into those scenes, feelings, I wanted to be Aura! Of course, things can't be happily ever after, there was too much to do. Figure out the Shift, stop the ghosts, the DMP, make Aura and Zach safe. The list was endless and Jeri Smith-Ready continued the harrowing adventure, not letting the Aura and Zach rest until the very last few pages.I'll say that I closed the book with a happy sigh feeling that everything had been addressed and all the bases had been covered. I was happy with the way everything had turned out, but I sure wish there were another adventure with Aura and Zach in the works. Maybe solving some other kind of mystery.Thank you Jeri Smith-Ready for being so involved with your readers during the YA Crush Tourney, for writing such a great trilogy and for a very satisfying conclusion to one series that will go on my special shelf to be re-read again and again.

    Jeri Smith-Ready is a dependable author. You know that you will get a great, emotional, thrilling read when you pick up one of her novels. "Shine" was nothing less than I have come to expect. I really like these trilogies which are so popular in YA right now. Three books give a story plenty of time to invest the reader in the characters and plot. Because a trilogy is not an ongoing series, the author seems to have a clear view of where the story is going and how they want to see it resolved. This fantastic series by Smith-Ready is so smart and emotional. The mood clearly remains hopeful and Aura's world is full is promise, but darn it, this series is also so heart wrenching.If you are reading this review and somehow haven't read the first two novels, please stop where you are and go order them now. You won't be disappointed. Aura is the first. The first baby born who could see ghosts. Every child born after her can see them and communicate with them as well. Things have come to a head by this third novel. Logan, Aura's first love, has moved on after his time on earth as a shade, a ghost. Aura thinks she and Zachary can move on with their fairly new relationship. But Zach and Aura have been too nosy, they have questioned to many things about the Shift, learned too much about why Zachary was the last child born before the shift, and she the first child born after. And now a tragedy has occurred and swept Zachary right up with it.I almost felt like "Shine" was two different stories. The first part of the book happens with Zach and Aura separated. This wasn't really a negative thing because it really created the tension and impact they story deserved when the two eventually reunite. Aura remains a super strong and moral character. She will do what is right in her eyes. She looks for not only her own happiness but also realizes the greater impact her actions will have. Zachary is as adorable as ever. And that is saying something because at least for the first installment, I was completely on Team Logan.There is plenty of the emotional play we have come to expect but there is also quite a lot of intense action. I love books where the actions of the main characters do have consequences and this book definitely is that. I have one small complaint about this last book, a little something that bothered me. I didn't like that in the last book, the author would introduce several brand new characters that we hadn't heard of before. When this happens in a series, I almost always feel like the author had to bring them in specifically to create an 'out' for a problem they boxed themselves in. On the upside I did really like one of these new characters, a friend of Zachary.I definitely came away though loving this book as much as I did the first two. The concluding book was fulfilling and did a great job of wrapping up our story. I am a Jeri Smith-Ready fan and I can not wait to see what she comes up with next. She also has a new WVMP novel coming out soon and if you are looking for a great adult read that series is truly amazing.

    Review courtesy of All Things Urban FantasyFrom the beginning, the Shade series has had a strong sense of direction, a clear endgame that has allowed readers to fully immerse themselves in Aura’s ghost filled world. In a word, Jeri Smith-Ready established trust between herself and her readers, and in SHINE, she rewards that trust with a completely emotionally and intellectually fulfilling conclusion. I loved every single moment.One of the many things that makes the Shade series so fantastic is the very honest and occasionally messy portrayal of teen characters. So often in YA fiction, issues get sanitized or glossed over. Neither SHINE nor the preceding books in this series shy away from the raw and emotional scenes that give these characters breath and life. There is nothing gratuitous about anything in this book, but when characters screw up, we see it. When they have to face the unpleasant consequences of their actions, we see it. Likewise when new experiences occur, we don’t get the everything-is-perfect-right-away scene. We get the pain, the awkwardness, the shyness, which makes the whole thing more tender, more sweet. How good is a book when you’re already bemoaning the fact that it’s the last one by the end of the first page? Expect emotions to run wild while reading SHINE. Outrage at the increasingly totalitarian actions taken by the DMP, exhilaration when Aura and Zach are finally reunited, grief filled heartache at last moments and remembered memories of Logan, bittersweet goodbyes, tragic losses, and hope so bright and shiny you can almost taste it. SHINE is everything I wanted it to be and more. I only wish it didn’t have to end.Very few YA series earn readers love so completely with a debut, fewer still take that love and fan it into a blaze of emotion so intense that it burns a permanent place in your heart. The Shade series does that. Every page is better than the last and SHINE is the almost painfully perfect ending to one of my all time favorite YA series. Make plans to hit the bookstore on May 1st. You won’t regret it.Sexual Content: A non graphic sex scene, several implied sex scenes

    It has been a stressful ride for Aura since the moment her boyfriend died but she is finally at the end of her journey to discover who she is and why she is that person. After some highly stressful events in the states with Zach by her side they finally get to go investigate what really happened between their parents and the events that caused the Shift overseas.SHINE started off with a bang and ended with closure. Zero time has passed between the end of SHIFT. Aura and Zach are still in danger and continue to be in danger throughout the whole book. An unexpected ally helps Aura in her time of need. Logan is finally truly gone and It was definitely time for that. I liked that Aura's friends are still very much involved in the final book. There is a ton of Aura and Zach romance and it was great to watch them together as they committed to each other. There is plenty of action and suspense and the pacing was perfect.Jeri did a fantastic job in closing out the series in a way that left me feeling satisfied and the story complete. Your heart will sore, it will break and it will cringe. This is a great series to add to your TBR pile if you have not already read it.

    I have been a fan of this series from the very beginning, so when I won a contest for a copy of this book I was so excited! I was very anxious to see how this series would wrap up and where Aura’s story would take us next.We pick back up with Shine pretty much exactly where we left off in Shift. Aura is saying good bye to Logan and Zachary is heading back to Scotland. This is where I can’t really sum up anything else without ruining the story. The first few chapters of this book had so much going on and so many revelations I was completely glued to the pages! Jeri set a fast pace right from the start and I could not have put this book down even if I tried. Jeri recently posted the first chapter on her blog here. I don’t know how you could read that and not want to continue. It certainly got my attention, my mouth was gaping open and I was not too happy with Jeri at the time. It did however make it impossible to turn away from this story. And Jeri definitely won me back over as I progressed through Shine.Let’s talk about something besides the plot because I don’t want to spoil any of it. It will be a lot more fun when you discover it for yourself, I promise. In Shine we are seeing the world once again through Aura’s eyes. Poor girl has not had it easy lately, she has the DMP after her, her ex-boyfriend died, became a ghost, became a shade, and then became a ghost again so he could move on and her current boyfriend is going back to Scotland and has no idea when he can come back to see her again. Not exactly living the good life, but she is making the best of it. Aura has always been a character that I could see myself being friends with. She does get down sometimes, but she has every right to be with the situations she finds herself in. She is a fighter though, especially when it comes to those she loves. She is not afraid to stand up for what she believes in and I truly admired that about her. All these qualities continue on in Shine and I loved being with her on this final journey.As for Zachary, he has always been there for Aura and I thought I knew who he was from the previous books, but certain events in Shine have massive repercussions on his life and my heart broke for him at points. His undying faith in Aura helps him through, but he will always be changed. While hard to read at times, I enjoyed exploring his character more and understanding who he really is. I know there is a short story coming up that focuses on him and I will be eager to read that and learn even more about him.The action in this book was pretty much non-stop. The pages were filled with suspense and intrigue. Aura could not go anywhere without fear of the DMP or some other organization tracking her down to try and capture her. For a large portion of Shine she is trying to lie low and keep off the radar, but she is never quite sure what awaits her around the next corner. The many twists in the plot kept me guessing until the end about what would happen. Jeri knows how to build suspense and I enjoyed that aspect of the book almost as much as the relationship between Aura and Zachary.Speaking of Aura and Zachary, we get just the right amount of time spent with them as a couple as well. You are not smothered with the romance, but there are moments where I got a little teary eyed because of the raw emotion expressed on the page. The love these two share for one another is an all-encompassing passionate affair and the genuine adoration I felt coming from them left me breathless. They have been through so much and I really just wanted to see them happy. They do face a few more obstacles in Shine, but I think they were all very realistic and vital to the development of this relationship. Aura and Zachary overcome their problems together and through the journey they become closer to one another. I soaked in every minute spent with them and just hoped that they could come out of this whole mess stronger and with a strong sense of who they both really are.Overall, I can’t think of one negative thing to say about Shine. Jeri gave me everything I wanted and more in this final installment. I went through every emotion while reading Shine and cannot recommend this series enough. If you have not read this series than go out and get the first book, Shade, right now and start. If you have read the first two then completing the journey with Shine is an absolute must! It was the perfect ending to this series and I am left completely satisfied.

    Skjdfadjgasdngjlskjfjsdakjl! There, I got it out of my system. Now I can go into this review with a (semi) level head.... I love these books, so naturally I was both excited and sad to start the last of the trilogy. Holy WOW did the author do a fantastic job!I'm not going to say anything about plot, because it would be very easy to spoil. I can tell you though, you will not be disappointed. I was not really prepared for how quickly the action takes off and how intensely your emotions will be tested and played with. I liked it, definitely, but as a warning - huge things happen within the first couple of pages. I don't want to say that this book takes off where the other left off, but rather that it goes right into the action.Another thing to mention is that there are quite a few intimate scenes in the novel. I am not opposed to this, I just find it fair to point out that things do get a bit graphic. I make note of this just because readers may not be expecting it (I sure wasn't) because throughout the first two Aura always stopped things for one reason or another. I assumed that Shine would be no different. I assumed wrong.I really do not have any criticism with this novel. At first I was a bit annoyed that Aura figured things out so quickly when those connections would have never been made in my brain. Once I decided that she was just talented, I could not find a single thing that I didn't like.This installment quickly catapulted the series even higher on my favorites list because of how well the story wraps itself up. I mean that ending - perfect! I don't think I've ever been so happy with the conclusion of a series. As odd as it is, I really hope that the world is never revisited (with spinoffs); Aura's story is started in Shade and ended in Shine- it is perfectly completed.This review has been less of a review and more of a fan-girling opportunity, but I hope you get the picture. If you've read the first two, I recommend you run (don't walk) to get your copy on May first. If you haven't read the series, you are being a bad cookie reading this review! (But you should definitely pick up Shade).
