Book review: Xoe
I'm
getting a late start on this post, which is a benefit for you because I
can link to the other reviews going up today across the Paranormal Blog
Tour world! Sara posted a very kind review of Shiftless, Marilyn embarked on the first book in S.N. Graves' serial, and S.N, Graves followed suit with a fascinating review of Isabel and the Wolf.
As for me, I picked up Xoe, aptly subtitled "Or Vampires, and Werewolves, and Demons, oh my!" and ripped through it. Here's the blurb:
Xoe Meyers has a normal life. She's stuck going to high school, and
she only has a few friends to call her own.
But even though she likes her normal life, things are about to change. A new guy has come to town, and he's anything but normal.
Before Xoe can say,
"Werewolf," her best friend's life is in peril, and Xoe's world is
turned upside-down. Can she trust another new guy who promises to come to her aid?
If you enjoyed Twilight, then Xoe
will be right up your alley with a strong heroine suddenly thrust into a
paranormal adventure. There's plenty of unique world-building to
distinguish between the two books, though, and Xoe is very different
from Bella, so you definitely won't be bored. I don't want to give much
away, but will say that the ebook is currently free, so why not pick it
up and give it a try? Perhaps, like me, you'll soon move on to book two.
