The Eternity cure (Blood of Eden #2) by Julie Kagawa

Slika
Summary: Allison Sekemoto has vowed to rescue her creator, Kanin, who is being held hostage and tortured by the psychotic vampire Sarren. The call of blood leads her back to the beginning—New Covington and the Fringe, and a vampire prince who wants her dead yet may become her wary ally. Even as Allie faces shocking revelations and heartbreak like she’s never known, a new strain of the Red Lung virus that decimated humanity is rising to threaten human and vampire alike. My review: I read Immortal rules only a few weeks ago so everything was still fresh in my mind and if The Eternity cure didnt come out when it did, I think I would go insane. I loved Kagawa's Iron fey series and ever since I heard about her writing a book with a dystopian world ruled by vampires, I was intrigued. Vampires are my favorite creatures and I love to read new interpretations and characteristics that writers come up with. In this case, the end result was a little frightening and unique and intere

Synopsis: Colton Bradford never believed in love at first sight. And then, Rain Maxwell walked through his buddy's front door. He knew there was something special underneath the shy, guarded exterior and was determined to find out what it was. The problem? Rain had devised her own set of life rules and “Never get involved with a band mate” was right near the top of that list. She allowed Colton into her heart as one of her closest friends, but pushed him away at the mention of anything more. When tragedy strikes Rain's personal life, Colton is determined to be there for her in whatever way she'll allow. Will she finally open up to him and consider taking things to the next level? Will Colton's ways of trying to bury his feelings for Rain in the past ruin the possibility of a future for them? My review: What can I say? Give me a book with a rock band in the center of it and I am sold. This book tells the story of Colton and Rain from Coltons POV and it w

Dead ever after (Sookie Stackhouse #13) by Charlaine Harris

Slika
Summary Sookie Stackhouse finds it easy to turn down the request of former barmaid Arlene when she wants her job back at Merlotte’s. After all, Arlene tried to have Sookie killed. But her relationship with Eric Northman is not so clearcut. He and his vampires are keeping their distance… and a cold silence. And when Sookie learns the reason why, she is devastated. Then a shocking murder rocks Bon Temps, and Sookie is arrested for the crime. But the evidence against Sookie is weak, and she makes bail. Investigating the killing, she’ll learn that what passes for truth in Bon Temps is only a convenient lie. What passes for justice is more spilled blood. And what passes for love is never enough… My review I debated for a long time wether to give the final book in this series 3 or 4 stars. While unlike most people I wasnt dissapointed how it ended some things were still confusing and it would be better if they were explained more. It is hard to say goodbye to a series you worsh
