Another master piece
I'm a massive fan of the shadowhunter world and own every book (listed editions if possible) infernal devices is my favourite series but the dark artifices is a close second. This is the second book in the series. The main focus is Julian and Emma parabatai and best friend but also fighting their love for each other which is forbidden. Their are many characters in this book which can get a confusing when you start reading but the further you get the more each character stands out.
All in all its a page Turner and I couldn't put it down its has action, romance, betrayal, heart dropping tear jerking moments.

DNF @ 20%.

I'm finally giving it up. I put it on hold about a month ago and had a go at reading more of it last night and within three kindle pages, I'd exited the book again.

I had no idea what the hell was happening in this friggin book! She wakes up in a strange house, black and blue, scared of the guy who did this to her and within the first fifth of the book she's willingly sleeping with him and giving him BJ's? I didn't get it at all!

I know it's not a dark romance, which is a pity because apart from the black and blue thing, it would have been right up my street. It was far too psychological for my liking and I just didn't understand it. AT ALL!

Really not for me.

I've read quite a few of Feehan's paranormal books and enjoyed them so the chance to read a contemporary book by her? Sure, why not.

I enjoyed this more than I expected. MC's can be hit and miss for me but this one worked well for me. It had a touch of unusual talents, almost paranormal abilities, in some of the guys and I liked that. It was interesting in how connected they all were, how in sync... There were some dark themes throughout this book so it isn't for the faint hearted.

Add in the romance, and although he could be a bit domineering, I actually really liked that side of the story too.

Very intrigued about the rest of the members and the women/men who will claim them. Can't wait to read more.
