First off, I like my paranormal books to also have a little romance in them and this, apart from a kiss or two, had no romance.

Second. I had no idea what this sERIES would be about when I bought the trilogy as the synopsis was a little vague.

So, I have to admit that I did like it...just not really enough to continue the series.

To me, it seemed that they went through a lot of crap for nothing. To go to where the weird black things come from just to find out what power Jess had, and then to realise that you don't know what it is anyway?? Riiiight... :/

I don't think I'll be continuing it as it just isn't really my sort of thing, I'm afraid.

This had been on my “recommendations” page for a while and when I saw it on Scribd, I thought why not?

I didn’t read the synopsis so I wasn’t entirely sure what it was going to be about. I really need to start.

This wasn’t bad. I liked some aspects and it was different to a lot of other stories out there.

I'm not the biggest fan of mythology. I don't mind books set in that time but this wasn't quite up my street. It was dystopian-y, paranormal-y and slightly romance-y, which sounds like it would be but I found it a little strange.

I have to admit it was easy reading but it wasn't for me. I don't think I'll be continuing the series.
