I really enjoyed this story! Who knew you could make Medusa, the monster who turns everyone into stone if she looks at you into a likable character? Heather Lyons accomplished this. In this book Medusa is sweet and very kind girl who is cursed. I felt her pain and loneliness in this story. I swoo...
(3.5)The story unfolded nicely and smoothly, keeping interest with the right amount of intrigue, dialogue, and interesting characters. Nothing is dragged out for longer than necessary. Lots of tears, apologies, and quite some melodrama from our protagonist, Chloe. Cora was hilariously fierce. Kar...
~~~~~~~~~4.5~~~~~~~~~~More love triangle drama but it is so tragically delicious I couldn't resist it. It is the epitome of a horribly unavoidable love triangle. The rest of the series' content is really innovative and very interesting, it should definitely have been featured more. The writing is...
This is not my normal kind of book but I found it and decided to take a chance. I am SO glad I did. The writing was incredible. I was sucked in from the first chapter and never once felt bored. This was a great setup for a series. The end was satisfying but clearly there is so much more story to ...
I'm not gonna lie, I was scared to read this book because I was firmly Team Kellan after book one. I won't say I've switched teams but this novella gave me a whole new appreciation for Jonah. In fact, I hope we get to see more of the guy's POV as the series goes on.This is mostly a retelling of...
I don’t blame him. For the last five minutes, I’ve been babbling about floral arrangements for the wedding I haven’t really prepared for, due to an insane work schedule, not to mention should be postponing. It isn’t fair to continue on, not when I’m so confused. Not when I...
Most of our peers are enamored with the pool outside, and rightfully so. It is truly magnificent. But this one here, beneath the tennis courts? This is the one that lures me in like a siren. The entire room is covered in cobalt and golden mosaics al...
It feels vast, though, as Finn leads me through what can barely be referred to as a path. When we arrived in New York, nobody was there to greet us, which made sense as we weren’t expected until well after brunch. It was the dead of night, and other than security guards stationed on each floor, t...
I can’t exactly make out his words, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they were along the lines of: you need to disperse, go home, this is a peaceful town, we’ll hang this sonofabitch tomorrow. Ah, mob justice at its finest. I lie back on the small bench in the cell and stare up at the flaking ceili...
It’s a question I’ve been asked so many times in my life, for so many different reasons. Was I ready to Ascend? Be on the Council? Fight the Elders? Accept my Fate? Forge forward on my own path? And now, here I am, being asked this question by Cameron as he holds an arm out to me. He’s in a smart...
This Elder looks, for the first time ever, humanish. Still smoky, still distorting, but damn if it doesn’t actually mold its shape into a person with eyes—glowing ones that can’t seem to decide on a color. I don’t know which is worse—the shape-shifting creature, or the choice to look like it does...
