Summary:
Review:Kate Daniels faces her most powerful foe yet in this fourth entry in Ilona Andrews's New York Times bestselling series.
Kate Daniels cleans up the paranormal problems no one else wants to deal with-especially if they involve Atlanta's shapeshifting community.
And now there's a new player in town-a foe that may be too much for even Kate and Curran, the Lord of the Beasts, to handle. Because this time, Kate will be taking on family.
"That's it???"
Those were my words after reading the last sentence of the epilogue. That means I want more! :)
In this one we have Kate facing another dilemma again with the shapeshifters as the target. Kate will fight not only one but more or less eight enemies. Worst, she will be fighting a family.
I was really impressed on how the story goes. Although every book of the series deals with different adventures, the series never failed to enthrall me.
At first I was disappointed (I don't want to mention why because it would already be a spoiler! :), but later on the development of Kate and Curran's relationship is amazing. The book's overall humor is quite impressive and the fighting scenes are full of action and suspense. I don't know how Kate can survive all of those. She is incredible!
I want more of her adventures, so I checked if there's a sequel. Good thing there's more! Magic Slays will be published this coming March. I can't wait!

Summary:
Review:Rule #3: Don't stare at invisible faeries.
Rule #2: Don't speak to invisible faeries.
Rule #1: Don't ever attract their attention.
Aislinn has always seen faeries. Powerful and dangerous, they walk hidden in mortal world. when the rules that have kept Aislinn safe from them stop working, everything is suddenly on the line: her freedom, her bestfriend Seth, her life, everything.
Faerie intrigue, mortal love, and the clash of ancient rules and modern expectations swirl together in Melissa Marr's stunning 21st century faery tale.
I have been reading a lot of faery novels and this is another one. I bought this book when a local bookstore had sale three months ago. The pretty cover and the affordable price of the book caught my attention.
This novel has the same plot as other faery stories. Mortal-girl-sees-faeries. What I like about it though was it's uniqueness. When I read the book, it didn't really catch my attention since it didn't have that wow factor when you start a book. Some of the events are lame and didn't really excite me.
Although the story didn't surprise me at all, the characters are interesting most especially Seth. Okay, I'm not swooning. But as what was described in the book, he's that guy you'll go head over heels with. The faery intrigue did interest me and that's what made me finish the book.
The book was a fast read! It wasn't that bad for a start. Even though it wasn't a great read, I still want to continue reading the series. I heard that it gets better as the series progress!

Summary:
Mieradome, revolves around a young girl named Amavia, who believes she is a human girl, but slowly comes to find she is a faery in the world of Mieradome. Amavia's mother, Anastasica, had taken her out of the faery realm and hidden her away here in our human realm, so that she may be protected from her parents' past mistakes. But that was not enough, the forces that be found Amavia, and brought her back into the cosmos of the Grandmother Tree. There she meets other faeries, goblins, Telkar dragons, and Utopisols. Slowly who Amavia really was began to unravel to show the truth. The truth, that she just may be the evil they need to destroy. This is where the story begins.
Mieradome is a magical place where faeries live. The book is full of interesting personalities, faeries and other fascinating creatures. Amavia has to go to Mieradome to find out her mother's secret and her true identity.
At the start of the novel, it already intrigued me. What was this strange place called Mieradome and this raven who kept on talking about Amavia's death. The wonderful land of Mieradome was already introduced in the first few chapters. I had so many questions in my mind that I just continued reading and didn't notice that I already read a lot. There were many events in the story that may intreset you. What really interest me though are the unique names the author used such as Caiden, Aselin, Thewlis, Inocian, Garin, Amavia and many more. Although the names are pretty and unique, I had a hard time remembering the other names. Almost all characters, even the unimportant ones, have full names which made it more difficult.
I liked the story line and the word building. I also find the cover pretty and simple. I like books about faeries because they fascinate me. The author was able to create her unique version of faeries and interesting characters. However, the character building was not that impressive but just needed more development for the story.
Although this was not a perfect book, the author managed to showcase her talent on storytelling and world building.
