Review of The Awakened



Title: The Awakened
Author: P.C. and Kristin Cast
Published: January 4th 2011
Pages: 290
Rating: 4/5

Summary From Goodreads:

At the start of Awakened, the pulse-pounding eighth installment of the bestselling House of Night series, Zoey has returned, mostly whole, from the Otherworld to her rightful place as High Priestess at the House of Night. Her friends are just glad to have her back, but after losing her human consort, Heath, will Zoey—or her relationship with her super- hot Warrior, Stark—ever be the same? Stevie Rae is drawn even closer to Rephaim, the Raven Mocker with whom she shares a mysterious and powerful Imprint, but he is a dangerous secret that isolates her from her school, her red fledglings, and even her best friends. When the dark threat of Neferet—who is coming closer and closer to achieving her twisted goal of immortality—and Kalona returns, what will it take to keep the House of Night from being lost forever, and what will one desperate girl do to keep her heart from being irreparably broken?

Review:

First, this is eight in the House of Night series. Second, if you have not read the series before, girl, you are missing out. So much happens in this one, I could not put the book down. This book the characters are so easy to like, you feel like one of their friends. I did not see the ending coming and why did two people have to die? I don't want to spoil who does die, but for those of you who have read this book you know what I am talking about. Anyways, I defiantly got teary eyed when that first person die. If you have not read this series yet, you need too! It is nothing like Twilight for those people who don't like Twilight and for those of you who do like Twilight you will love this series!

Review of The One Percenters




Title: The One Percenters
Author: John Podgursky

Pages: 185
Rating: 4/5

Summary From Goodreads:

Natural selection has become unnatural. Having dealt with the vicious murder of his wife, Edward Caine takes his rightful place as a One-Percenter, eliminating those not fit for the human race. He must fight his instinct to use his role for revenge; he is after those who live on only because of money and medicine.

The weak-gened are not fit to breed, and it's the job of Edward and his brethren to see that they don't. But can he finish the job before his own mind betrays him? He is an agent of the Earth. He is a One-Percenter.

Review:


I really glad this author contacted me because it made me realize how much I miss reading thriller books. This book is really different from the ones I am used to reading but I like it. It keeps you in suspense is the main character a killer or is he making this whole thing up? The only thing I did not really like was there was a lot of swearing. Also that some parts kind of dragged on and on. But other than that I really liked this book and totally did not expected the ending. I would recommend this book who likes thriller/suspense and a surprise ending.:)

It's available in paperback at amazon and as an e-book at damnationbooks.com
