[Lenni]

You have voiced all the things I thought and felt throughout the book! I felt the same way after reading it for the first time. I even felt the urge to read the next one my third time through!😂😂😂 What’s your opinion on Chris?

[Tiera]

I'm going to join up rq if that is alright with you guys!?

[Lenni]

That’s very okay!!! I love talking with others about this book!

[Lenni]

He’s one of my favorites of the series. I’m a sucker for the hot guys who alway flirt. They’re my favorite trope. The latest book in the series is all about him, so now I know even more about him and I love him that much more.

[Lenni]

Hahaha, you’ve gotta read the rest to read the one in 2020. And yes, I’ve heard about it. I’m super excited for the dual POV because finally I’ll get to hear Dastien’s voice. Also, I read the second one in a day because I was hooked.

[Lenni]

That’s how Aileen Erin rolls. She addicts you and then you finish the series and don’t know what to do with yourself when you finish.

[Lenni]

But it’s the perfect time to be addicted since all the books are on sale

25% (view spoiler)[ Is there a spinoff with the coven? This scene really seems significant other than the obvious. I wonder if she will get to keep her abilities. I'm liking this so far. I was expecting to be a little more on the juvenile side but I have to say its swept me up pretty good. The angst isn't so bad yet lol. (hide spoiler)]
53% (view spoiler)[ Finally someone else who shares my appreciation for Blue Bell! Its the freaking best! When I was in college I was a "pull-up" girl for Blue Bell. In other words I traveled around the state to different stores that sold blue bell ice cream and restocked and zoned it so that it always looked good and stayed in stock. They didn't trust the store employees to do it correctly so they employed their own people to do it. (hide spoiler)]
68% (view spoiler)[ "Ignorance isn't bliss. Its completely frustrating." I have to agree with this statement and at the same time wonder why the heck she isn't trying harder to learn everything she needs to learn. She still hasn't read that book and it looks like every time she tries she gets interrupted lol. Thats probably going to drag out the ignorance for a bit. (hide spoiler)]
75% (view spoiler)[ Look... Imogene had it coming.. I don't blame her at all for going off half cocked. (hide spoiler)]
Finished: (view spoiler)[ I really liked the start of this series. Its definitely something I would like to continue and see where it goes. It was very YA with the teenage angst and I can't help but agree with our FMC's fear of commitment. I am also glad the author decided in the end not to go for the love triangle. It looked like it was heading that direction for a hot second but I'm glad we didn't go there. I'm a little concerned that our FMC still hasn't "embraced" her wolf and fully shifted. All in all this was a pretty good read and Im excited to see whats left since that wrapped up pretty nicely. Who is the next enemy thats going to try to pry Dastien and Tessa away from each other? (hide spoiler)]

The coven causes a lot of trouble for Tessa and Dastien. I’m so happy you enjoyed this series too!!! I agree, it’s very YA, but that’s one of the things I love most about it.

Yea I like that its YA but the writing itself doesn't feel juvenile to me. It wasn't super whiney or eye rolley and the angst was there but kept to an acceptable level. It was a one sit read for me so that in itself is a pretty great compliment!
