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.

Wide range of topics,for example; serial killers, horrific old "treatments", terrifying "monsters" and loads more. (0 more)
Lore is the first podcast I listened to, my boyfriend got me into it and it's still my favourite. I ended up binge listening to it, and despite the fact that it had been released years prior to my starting to listen to it, I was soon waiting eagerly for new episodes to be released, as I had caught up.I am particularly interested in episodes about real life things like serial killers and old "treatments" but I also love episodes on paranormal/folk lore topics.Some episodes are actually terrifying one such episode is about dolls, I was listening to it late at night and had to turn it off until the next day.
