Narration Toward Books Captivate (Need #2)
He smiles. It's a wicked smile. Kind but not kind. Handsome but dangerous. Feral almost. I can see why Nick nearly killed him, Nick...I ask again, "Why were you in the road?"
"I was waiting for you."
Zara and her friends thought they'd solved the pixie problem. And they did - sort of. The pixie's are all locked away, deep in the woods. But the king's needs grow stronger each day that he is in captivity, while his control over his people weakens. And it's enough to draw a new king into town. Astley claims he is different. He claims there are pixies who can live peacefully with humans, that it doesn't have to be all violence and nastiness all the time. Zara wants to believe him...until Astley also claims that she is fated to be his queen.
There is no way Zara would ever turn pixie. And she's got good friends who will make sure of that. Besides, she and Nick are so in love they're practically inseparable. But when they very thing Zara wants to protect most is exactly what's at risk, she is forced to make choices she never imagined...

I really wanted to like this series but I give up halfway through this book. I can't finish it right now, maybe one day I will. It is just too silly. Nick and Zara are driving me crazy all with all their mushy love talk (and I'm a big fan of romance in books). If you are like me and thought the first book was okay and hoped this was better I'm afraid you might be disappointed.Likes:1. The main plot2. This new Astley Character3. The fact that Nick is gone.... I know that's mean, but he's not really gone is he?!?!?!4. Zara's turning into a pixie.5. All the little pixie tips in the beginning's of new chapters 6. Deveyn and Issie are finally together7. The Cover of the book8. The lists of phobias throughout... Atleast I can semi-feel like I'm learning something.Dislikes:1. The author's need to make Nick call Zara Baby every 5 seconds.2. The Ending... which is not really
I literally just finished reading this book minutes ago and I'm actually very annoyed. As the end of the book margin got smaller and smaller I knew I was going to finish the book and still want more. I HATE when authors leave endings like that. So here's my basic review."Captivate" maintained the gripping plot of "Need" but was actually much more enjoyable. The writing was hard to get used to at first because it is written in 1st person and seems juvenile (some incomplete sentences, poor grammar
This and my other reviews can be found at http://amethystbookwyrm.blogspot.co.uk/Captivate starts a while after Need with Zaras father being trapped in the house with his pixies and the friends are stopping other pixies which are arriving more often.In the first half of the book Nick and Zara are in love, Issie is jealous of Devyns friendship with a girl called Cassidy. Also Zara, after rescuing a pixie called Astley, has an internal debate about whether all pixies are evil. I love the addition
This is the sequel Captivate by Carrie Jones which follows the events after Need. This book follows Zara, as she must try and find Nick, who died and was taken to Valhalla. She meets up with the Pixie king, Astley who swears to protect her. She must find and nick and save him but will he forgive her for what she's done?CHARACTERS-I still love Zara, she is so cool and (view spoiler)[... (hide spoiler)] now she's a pixie queen and that's super awesome. I love Astley, he is such a great character
I loved this more than the first one! Why probably because of Astley! I'm such a sucker for the "other guy" I swear it is my downfall in books. I so rarely prefer the main guy. The evil pixies are still trapped in the house in the woods. Zara and the gang continue to monitor them but something is up. A bunch of new pixies have been coming to town and they are up to something. Nick believes they should just continue to kill them off one by one. But when Zara runs into one tied up to a tree near
There is a standard to which I judge fantasy YA books. I ask myself, is this worse than Twilight? If the answer is no, I keep reading. The answer this time was nearly yes.The fact is, there were so many problems with this book I rarely felt like a book. It felt like a rough draft of a novice writer looking to get published. There was no fluidity to the writing. There was certainly nothing engaging. And the characters. God, the characters.I'll admit, Zara had charm in the first book. She was
