Beautiful Creatures

Shayna:
Hey guys i know it has been a while but hannah has been on vacation, again lol and i have been sick a lot and when im not sick i've been at the barn i ride at on foal watch. and nope, no baby yet but she has been in labor for like 72 hours so i should be anytime yet :) everyone at the barn is really excited including me. we have 2 mares in foal that are due like 2-3 weeks apart. so after Luna gives birth, Summer should not be too far behind!
Sorry for the ramble but all this time has left me to do a lot of reading!

Review:
Okay so I recently got this book after watching a ton of reviews on youtube because everyone LOVED it. and i have to agree with them. This book is awesome, spectacular, exciting, sad, happy, everything! i cannot say enough great things about this book.

It is narrated by Ethan Wate. and i liked this a lot. it is rare (in the books i have read atlesat) a guy narrates a book and i love that. His love interest is Lena Duchannes and she has a big secret. i wont say what it is because i dont want to spoil ANYTHING! The characters are awesome in this book. they are very round and dynamic characters and you can really feel what they feel through the writing.

The Authors are superb! the way they write makes every emotion jump of the page. Even though this is a very lengthy book it doesnt ever get really slow. there are some parts that i thought may have been a little unneccesary but i wasnt really bothered by it.

But this book is roughly, without giving away spoilers, Ethan who has lived in Gatlin for his entire life and wants nothing else but to leave and then he starts having these dreams about a girl he has never met before. And then there is a new girl in town that lives in Ravenwood manor with her stay in Uncle, the town lunatic.But Lena has a huge secret that will change her life and ethans forever...

but definately, definately, definately get this book! It is outstanding! and i cannot wait for Beatiful Darkness to come out! the only thing that bums me out about the Caster Chronicles is that we have to wait so long for the books, im much too impatient for such a good series! We have to wait Until October for Beautiful Darkness, then Fall 2011 for the third then Fall 2012 for the fourth. Oh well im sure they will be worth it



Happy Reading!
