Rebecca Yarros delivers an emotional masterpiece in Full Measures, a story that shattered my heart and pieced it back together more times than I can count. From the gut-wrenching opening to the tear-soaked, breathtaking conclusion, this book is a rollercoaster of grief, love, and healing.
Ember’s pain is raw and deeply felt—her world collapses in an instant, and the weight of responsibility on her shoulders is overwhelming. Watching her navigate life after tragedy, especially as her mother spirals, was heartbreaking yet inspiring. Her hesitation to love a military man is completely understandable, making her journey with Josh even more powerful. And Josh Walker—oh my heart. The way he steps up, never pushing but always there, offering comfort, love, and unwavering support, made me melt. Their chemistry is undeniable, their love story beautifully painful yet utterly rewarding.
The ending had me sobbing just as much as the beginning. Yarros captures grief and love with such authenticity that I felt every moment alongside Ember. This book isn’t just a romance—it’s a deeply moving story about loss, resilience, and the courage to love even when it hurts. Full Measures is unforgettable, and I’d give it a hundred stars if I could.
