These books are fine and all but has anyone else realized that there are going to be TWELVE of them in total?! After Burned you have Stolen, Burdened, Touched, Cloaked and Wanted. No wonder they are starting to tell the story from multiple perspectives. (Speculation is now at fifteen books).

Loving the U.K. cover by the way, disappointed its not Stevie Rae like the U.S. but it will look good on my shelf anyway.


Finally, time for me to actually review it. Okay, so this took me a w More...

I really don't know why I keep reading these books. Maybe I'm hoping they'll get back to being as good as the first five books in the series. They were, I don't know, cozy. But not anymore.

The whole point of this book is to deal with the events that happened at the end of Tempted. And really, that's it. It is painfully obvious that P.C. and Kristin Cast threw in that ending so they could cash in on another book resolving that ending. Quite literally, the first 250 pages of this book is More...

I absolutly loved the book before this book. The only problems I had with it were that.................. 1.) Zoey and Stark didn't seem like they got enough time together which made it seem like they were growing apart. 2.) Stark and Zoey need to be together. Period. 3.) I am zo glad Heath died. He was a totally unimportant character. he just got in the way. 4.) How in the fricken world could Zoey DIE????????????? I really hope that in Burned Zoey lives and she ends up with the right person (Sta More...

I love this series. I have never felt so connected to a set of characters. Whenever I'm reading one of these books I always feel like I'm right there and that zoey and her gang are my friends. These books bring me happiness, sadness, anger, serenity, & laughter. I always regret finishing one and always enjoy picking up another. I am ecstatic to hear that there are more books to come and even more ecstatic to hear that they are working on making them into films. I say keep up the good work P.C. C More...

***SPOILER ALERT!!!***

Zoey's soul is shattered and it will only take two people in her life to save her soul; Heath and of course Stark. To be honest, I pretty tired of the whole 'I can't leave you Heath! I love you!' I was jumping up and down on my bed when Stark finally was part of her life.

Aprodite of course was hilarious! It was kind of cool for her to have some parts and see her point of view in this whole mess. We got to know her better and loved her even more.

Also appears on The Screaming Nitpicker.

A little background info before I begin: I loved the first four House of Night books, though I still had my issues with them. When the fifth book came out, I wasn't fond of it, but it was decent. Tempted, the sixth book, was just awful. In accordance with my two book rule (in which one bad book in a series is a fluke, but two means that I will stop reading the series), Burned was going to be the big decision-making book. After reading this awfu More...

The House of Night Series is filled with drama. At times I feel im reading a teenage soap-opera. But It is highly addicting. And as the series continue I feel that each books gets darker and each of the characters get more entangled in conflicts but they mature.

I specially started to enjoy the series more when the different point of views of the characters started to appear. I found that Aphrodite, Stevie Rae and Stark are complex and interesting characters.

In the beginning More...

The first few books in this series were good. They were fun, easy reads and guilty-pleasure material. The last few books have been a chore to read, though. While the characters were not as annoying in this book (due to Zoey not really being present) the writing was irritating. I did not understand the reason for switching narrators every few pages. It added nothing to the story and broke it up too much. I have never been a fan of the Kalona plot which was particularly boring in this book. I real More...

P.C. Cast has gone way beyond the talent she has shown in previous books in her writing of the most recent installment of the House of Night series. The multiple perspectives, introduced in the 6th book worked masterfully in telling this book's unique story. The way that the storyline is told is both surprising as it is breathtaking. There was a point in this book where P.C. Cast tricked me and I absolutely loved it! When the realization hit, I was in awe of how well written the revelation was. More...

I don't like to stop reading a series, if i've read more than three books. But it may be time to swallow my own words again, because this series is just not for me. It has turned from something amount 3 stars, to something amount none.

I had actually looked forward to this book. I thought, that maybe it would get more interesting, because there would be less boyissues, now that this stupid jerk caveman boy Heath is gone.

But when i turned the first page, i was tempted to More...

The heart is a powerful thing. The soul…strong and unyielding.

Burned is by far my favorite book of the series and where the others fell short I feel that Burned more than made up for it. The characters have all grown immensely, their feelings and attitudes shifting, changing, maturing.

It took a while for me to finish the book only because I’ve been so busy. Usually taking a while to read a book depletes my enjoyment of it, in this instance that was not the case. Though More...

OK, I liked this book a lot, but I felt like it was a step down from all the others when it should have been a step up. I cried my eyes for Heath again (but luckily big bro wasn't home). Heath was just soooooo wonderful and sweet and hot and self-sacrificing and just plain friggin' amazing. He had better be reborn in the next one or maybe the one after that or something IDK, but he better come back. By the way did Kalona die at the end or what? I mean I hate him for what he did to Heath so i'd b More...

Burned is the seventh installment to the House of Night series and the last one in the series for a while. It is in the same format as Tempted in that the point of view changes with each chapter, which I really like. This time we hear mostly from Stevie Rae and Stark, but Aphrodite, Rephaim and even Kalona are present too, as well as Zoey, but she doesn't play as much of a role as in the previous books, although she is still the main focus.

After the sad events that happened at the en More...

This book developed having multiple character perspectives even more. Because of the character development in this book, when I reread the other books I understood some characters much better. Once again, the idea of choice and free will is very emphasized, and also that things might not always be what they seem (for example, black isn't always darkness, and light isn't always white - those of you who've read the book will know what I mean). The universe the Casts have created continues to grow More...

This is my favorite so far....

....well some of it was. Stevie rae went from a fave of mine to a not so fave. I really didn't appreicate the part where she's having sex on the kitchen floor while her bestfriend is halfway in her grave.

Zoey is back on my favorite characters and hopefully in the next book will not be so annoying as she was before.

Still in love with Stark. :) and Aphrodite has made it up to my number-one favorite character!! (i really expected he More...

Wow! From the first word to the last this book is filled with action and suspense. Such a wonderful new chapter in the House of Night saga. I loved the multiple POV's and the intricate storylines flowing through the book. How what we assumed in past volumes is turned showing that while Zoey is essentially the main character we are shown that it isn't just about her, but about the group and all the decisions and choices they make. How these combined choices form the world around them and will ult More...

I know that I should be reviewing something else right now, but in the spirit of paranormal obsessiveness I just couldn’t control myself. I have been waiting (literally) for months for “Burned” to be released, and for those of you that follow the “House Of Night” series I’m sure you have my back on the sudden book ADD I developed yesterday morning.

Anyways,

PC and Kristin Cast have written an amazing set of books so far with this series and I'm very proud to be a fan of it. For some reason, though, I couldn't get into this book as well as the previous ones. I'm not saying that it wasn't good. One of the things I enjoyed were that the authors wrote from Kalona and Rephaim's point of view in this book. I really enjoy seeing the "bad guys" as actual characters and not one dimensional.
I think the reason that I couldn't get into this bo More...

Can you put back together a broken heart? What about a shattered soul? Zoe is mentally destroyed after she witnessed Heath's death and now her soul floats in pieces in the Otherworld. I wasn't a huge fan of Zoey in this novel. She was always this strong and independent women who not only did what was right, but stood up for what she believed in. Now she is decimated and doesn't know how or even want to get her soul back together. She seems lost, almost child-like, and needs not one, but tw More...

Review: This is by far my favorite book of the series so far. I do not want to give the plot or the story away so I am going to be as vague as possible in my review.

Things I loved: More Stevie Ray and Aphrodite! In fact, I would almost say this book was their book. As they are my two favorite characters in the series it made this book that more enjoyable. I loved how PC flushed these two characters out by both growing them as individuals and having them work together more. I think in t More...
