Ms. Carter did it again. I absolutely loved the Goddess Test series and I am just as excited about this one. I loved all of the plot twists in it and the characters were so easy to get attached to. I really enjoyed the little details of the book. There was so much action in this and, unlike many other Young Adult novels, there wasn't really a love triangle. Woo! I hope people will want to read this as much as I did. Great job Aimée Carter!!

I hate getting involved in series. I don't like being forced into commitment. This book received 3 stars because it turned out to be better than I expected, but at the end it was still a bit unoriginal and relied too heavily on the ubiquitous love triangle. To be fair, the writing was pleasant, although the characters felt a little two dimensional. But YA is not my preferred genre. If I do decide to pick up the other two books, it won't be anytime soon.

Good retro feel (0 more)

On second season felt dragged (0 more)

Season one very good season 2 moderate

Stranger things were a good retro feel your without it being heavy in it but it also had a good strong story. Nancy wheeler character having the love triangle felt confusing and didn't need. The boys group are funny landing the jokes. Jim hopper is a good sheriff and wanting to protect the female protagonist. But in the second season felt juggling too many individual stories on character. Too much

Though this book can be read as a stand alone; as it does work rather well by itself, I recommend that you read The Guardian first. I truly enjoyed reading this book.

Adela is a powerful vampire that has suffered an abundance of losses and is now caught up in a romantic love triangle with John and Gala. The story line and characters are well developed with just the right amount of action and romance. This well paced story quickly pulls you in and you feel like you are right there so that for me made it a unique read. If you love reading vampire books then this is definitely one for you.
