Okay so i'm not entirely sure why everyone loved this book. I'm actually thorougly confused honestly. It wasn't a horrible book persay. I loved the way it started off but then it all went downhill from there (to me at least). Our heroine was so annoying at times i could scream. I'm all for the damsel in distress but Damnit! Do something smart. (view spoiler)[ For instance...we have the moment where her sister is eating rawmeat over the counter A La Carte'....she's all twisted up in some exorcistI really enjoyed this werewolf story. It has action, intrigue, and love.The story moves fast.Isaac Mayfair stole my heart. His cold, distant demeanor pulled me in, and then his warm feelings for Adria kept me motionless beside them.
I just had to DNF this book. And I just have to rant about it. I'm sorry, I love YA romance and I can suspend certain beliefs for the betterment of the reading experience...but these characters were just ridiculous. Isaac and Adria's love at first sight is completely without chemistry and based on...absolutely nothing. At least in a similarly ridiculous book like Twilight--even though the fact their love was also based on virtually nothing--you could actually believe it a little bit. I mean, at
Very good read indeed! Can't wait to jump into book two to find out what happens next with Isaac and Adria. The whole story was quite interesting. The writing style and main character intonation complemented the storyline perfectly. Adria's voice captured her high school teenage persona convincingly and she came across as a sincere level headed teenager who regretfully had been dealt a less than perfect hand by fate but somehow managed to stay strong and make the best of things. I liked the
LOVED!!!To be honest, it took me a little bit to really get into it. I am not a huge fan of werewolf novels in general, but I wanted to give it a try bc I've heard so much about it being a good book. Pretty much as soon as Isaac comes into play I was hooked. Now sadly, I saw a spoiler review for the last book, so I knew exactly what the 'weird stuff' going on in the end of the book was. I kinda wish I hadn't seen the spoiler. I wonder if I would've figured it out for myself. :) But it didn't
Now I'm starting to get cranky. It seems as though it's been a week of 3 star books for me and I'm over it. I don't think a book has ever managed to piss me off within the first 2 pages like this one did. Kudos. On the first page, Adria, or "Dria" talks about her life with her older sister, her mom, and her mom's abusive boyfriend. She says "But don't get the wrong idea; no one beat me, and my life wasn't all that bad, really." Hmm. OK. If you say so, girl. She also goes on to say, "Who could be
Ordinarily I try to find books about at least 17 to 18 yr olds because I like to have a bit of spice in my books. It does not have to have all out sex, but at 17 and 18 you're expecting a little more than kissing without tongue. Something a little more mature, you know? This was one of the reasons why I picked up this book along with the fact that it was also about weres/shapeshifters, which I prefer to vampires. I will admit that although I wasn't crazy about the writing I kept at it until I
