Book Review--Twisted

Twisted by Gena Showalter. So I've really enjoyed the Intertwined Series. I love Aden, Mary Ann, Victoria, and Ryley. I love all souls. I love the incidental characters. I love the idea of having souls trapped in your head that have powers that leak to you. Everything about this series has fascinated me. The complex relationships, the voices (in more ways than one), the setting, everything is wonderful. Twisted had me turning pages and as the book slowly got heavy on the left end, the more frustrated I became because I knew I wouldn't like the ending because it would be a cliff hanger . . . and it was. It's so frustrating, but I have to admit that I'll be waiting for the next one. I have to know what happens. I'd recommend this to anyone who loves a good paranormal romance. There is some content (nothing explicit) and one F-bomb. It receives a :):):):). Here's a blurb and the trailer.

SIXTEEN-YEAR-OLD ADEN STONE HAS HAD A HELL OF A WEEK. HE’S BEEN:

Tortured by angry witches.
Hypnotized by a vengeful faery.
Spied on by the most powerful vampire in existence.
And, oh, yeah. Killed – twice.

His vampire girlfriend might have brought him back to life, but he’s never felt more out of control. There’s a darkness within him, something taking over . . . changing him. Worse, because he was meant to die, death now stalks him at every turn. Any day could be his last.

Once upon a time, the three souls trapped inside his head could have helped him. He could have protected himself. But as the darkness grows stronger, the souls grow weaker – just like his girlfriend. The more vampire Aden becomes, the more human Victoria becomes, until everything they know and love is threatened.

Life couldn’t get any worse. Could it?

Book Reviews

It's just not working for me to catch up. Between my sister and I, we've had three baby showers this week. Plus, I've played for a wedding, taught lessons, helped clean and prep for some of the showers and the list goes on. I promise I will catch up, I just don't know when.

Anyway, I'm finding I read library books faster than the books I own (probably because I have to return them in a certain amount of time). The latest is Gena Showalter's Unraveled. I really liked the first one Intertwined and I enjoyed the second one. The concept is really interesting, but in Unraveled I felt like there were almost too many subplots. Is that possible? I also felt like one of the characters whined a lot. I know why now, but it was a bit much for me. I enjoyed the story and it was an easy read besides that. Let me know what you think!
