Chosen - Jennifer Ortiz | Review | BethanyReadsBooks

3.75 out of 5 

I really liked this book, i mean when you introduce a demon that flies on a two-headed dragon on the first page it's hard not to, and if that wasn't enough well perhaps you should lower your expectations ;) 

The story is told from cal's point of view which was interesting but I couldn't connect to it, which we must presume is just my reading preferences as it's very different to the books i read which are usually told by the female protagonist or a third person point of view. 

Cal. I liked him, he might of perhaps been a little 'rambly' with his thoughts and as it's told from his point of view this was quite distracting, but i liked him as a character.

Then there is Gabby, i love gabby and i'm a fan of Cal and Gabby together but I'm not gonna give away any of the story. 

There is a line near the end of the book that i highlighted because it touched me 'It wasn't death, per se, that upset me. I understood that perfectly, that death was an unavoidable part of life.it was the senseless, needless, completely unnecessary death that pissed me off'  i think this is the line that convinced me i loved Cal and that won me over for this story, which wasn't difficult but i think it's a beautiful line and i had to mention it in this post.

Alright guys, so first review after my break.... cut me some slack and read this book, you won't regret it, well you might but I don't ;)

Into a million pieces - Angela V. Cook | Review | BethanyReadsBooks

I'm going to give this book a 4 out of 5 stars.

Into a million pieces is about Allison who is a Succubi. Her twin is constantly pushing the boundaries of their 'curse' which puts Allison on edge. Despite her own protective measures she meets Ren who shows her that not all Succubi are incapable of love as she has been told. There are some major plot turns in this book that i think are best left for you to enjoy, but i have to say that i did not see them coming AT ALL.

Now, Into a million pieces is the first Succubi novel I've read and i have to say i enjoyed it, i love the uniqueness, because while i do enjoy a good Vampire novel i prefer something with a bit of originality and this book had it in spades from what is typically available.

At first I'll admit i was a bit dubious about the story and it took me a whole day to summon the energy to read it... though that might of been the eight hours of sleep i didn't get last night coupled with the Exam i had at 9am... However now that i have finished the book, I'm sad i haven't read it earlier, and i would most definitely recommend this book. 

Not only is it a unique YA read but there is NO sex... well not the dirty stuff that you find in NA (not saying i dont like a bit of steam sometimes but not all the time)... there was kissing and a little bit more but the book portrayed this a sweet, Ren is so understanding towards Allisons 'condition' never pushing for anything more and even says at one point that he just wants to be with her which for my romantic heart was completely heart melting... something i personally crave with Romance.

I can respect Angela V. Cook's character development in this book, the main character alone goes through so many changes and experiences that by the end of the book she appears to be someone different to who she was at the beginning, but not to different that it seems unbelievable. 

The only complaint  i have is that i can't find out when or if the sequel is coming out and i really want a sequel :( 

This book was received free from Netgally in return for an honest review. The Thoughts and Opinions are all my own.
