More like a 4.5 rating.

I'm usually introduced to series, after a few of the books have already been released. Sometimes, it's better that way. You don't have to wait a year for the next one. Anyway, this year I'm extremely excited about a few new series, "Nevermore" and "Hex Hall." Now I can add this book to the list, unfortunately it doesn't actually come out until next year, so that means waiting even longer for the second book. It's worth it in my opinion.

I don't usually overly boost about a book, but I'm excited about this new series. There is a lot of potential to build upon. The characters are really likable and sassy. I like sassy and strong minded heroines and heroes. There are plenty of those in this book. I usually pick one of the guys who are potential love interests and start crushing on them, then I cheer them on. I would have to say, I can't decide between Denver Beck or Simon Adler, plus Ori. I can't forget about him. Which to choose... hummmmmm... Okay, I will admit that I prefer redneck Beck and mysterious Ori to goody-two-shoes Simon.

I also really liked the premise behind this book, good verses evil and trappers who hunt the demons. I thoughts this book was fast paced. You get enough back story, but not in a boring too much information way. I really loved Riley's character. She's a fighter without being too macho.

Oh, I can't forget the cute Magpie demones, who steal shiny objects and flip you the bird. Too cute. Plus, they get stored in sippee-cups.

Hilarious.

I could go on, but I think you get the picture.

Em Hey, if you like books with demon trappers, there is a series (i think) might be even better than this one. The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare:)


If it ain't good I don't read it ! This book was okey aside from the depressing sceneary and the lack of understanding during some parts of the book it was okey except when the kept saying ya and all this other shit. But what got me really confused is that why the fuck is she fuckin getting abused by this Henry dude cause last time I checked that wasn't legal ....... Well I know it's 2018 but wtf there were cops in the book so why not report the dick head ?? . Other then those parts the book was sick the ideas I loved them like the little Maggie demons I liked . she should have got one as a pet thing like the hobbo did that was cool but what set me off was the hole end of the world thing ?? Don't get me wrong I'd known the hole time shed play a important role in the hole thing but stop the end of the world ?? Still confused here and I don't know what happen during some point of the book but when did she fall heed over heels for Simon. Because I don't know about you but if some angel came to me and said oh I'll let your boyfriend live if you stop the end of the world I'd run the fuckin other way cause aint no fuckin way I'm gonna be in some war against demons beacouse Jana Oliver gave me a pretty good discreption of them so no buddy I'm good since you angals knocked the shit out of the demons while protecting the trappers I'm sure you could take on there boss on as well no biggi I'll support you from the side lines once I get my passport and my money and take a nice drive to the airport !
Lol thats my review feel free to rate pce love and demons if you win I'm on your side !!
