“I was always able to lose myself in reading. Books were a necessary escape I always gladly jumped into headfirst.”

This was this fast, entertaining book that I enjoy reading between heavier reads. The plot and character backgrounds are interesting and I enjoyed the mythology behind the Luxen, but it wasn't something extraordinary or even totally original. It was filled with YA clichés, and a lot of times I felt like I was reading Twilight again, because it was VERY VERY similar in lots of aspects (including some really identical scenes).

Daemon is the kind of bad boy you love-hate, but mostly he thinks he knows what's best for Katy and tries to interfere with her life, despite his claims that he doesn't even like her. They have obviously a very good chemistry and some cute scenes, but again, it's nothing I've never seen before and not something I particularly like. Katy started out as sarcastic, smart-mouthed and outgoing, but as the story progressed, she turned into the typical paranormal YA trope. I was expecting more from her. At least she's not bland as Bella or have the lowest self-esteem in the universe. Dee is by far my favorite character, she's so outgoing, sweet and caring! I really want her to have more focus and be happy by the end of this series.

I don't know if I'll be continuing with this series. Yes, it's not as bad as I thought and certainly better than the Covenant series, but it's not what all the fans make it to be and I'm not a fan of this kind of YA clichés. On the other hand, it's a super fast, entertaining read and I'm mildly curious to know what happens in the sequels. I might leave it for when I'm in need of something lighter and carefree - either way, it's not going to be right now.
