Book Review ⋯ Supernaturally

Title: Supernaturally
Series: Paranormalcy ⋯ Book 2
Author: Kiersten White
Pages: 336
Stars: ★★★★1/2


Summary: Evie finally has the normal life she’s always longed for. But she’s shocked to discover that being ordinary can be . . . kind of boring. Just when Evie starts to long for her days at the International Paranormal Containment Agency, she’s given a chance to work for them again. Desperate for a break from all the normalcy, she agrees.

But as one disastrous mission leads to another, Evie starts to wonder if she made the right choice. And when Evie’s faerie ex-boyfriend Reth appears with devastating revelations about her past, she discovers that there’s a battle brewing between the faerie courts that could throw the whole supernatural world into chaos. The prize in question? Evie herself.

So much for normal.

Review: SPOILER!SPOILER!SPOILER!SPOILER!SPOILER!SPOILER!

WARNING: Do not continue if you haven't read this book.

This book was amazing. I didn't like Jack throughout the book because he reminded me of my youngest brother, but I totally didn't expect him to be behind it all. I gave it a rating of 4.5 instead of a solid 5 because as much as I loved this book, I felt like it was leading up to something big that didn't happen. I mean, the ending wasn't what I thought was going to happen, and that's usually a good thing, right? I'm hoping that whatever I thought was going to happen in Supernaturally, happens in the last book, Endlessly. 

SPOILER-FREE!

Overall, I loved this book. I love this whole series. If you haven't read Paranormalcy or Supernaturally, you should go get them. Now.

Book Review ⋯ Paranormalcy

Title: Paranormalcy
Series: Paranormalcy ⋯ Book 1
Author: Kiersten White
Pages: 335
Stars: ★★★★★


Summary: Weird as it is working for the International Paranormal Containment Agency, Evie’s always thought of herself as normal. Sure, her best friend is mermaid, her ex-boyfriend is a faerie, she's falling for a shape-shifter, and she's the only person who can see through paranormals' glamours, but still. Normal

Only now paranormals are dying, and Evie's dreams are filled with haunting voices and mysterious prophecies. She soon realizes that there may be a link between her abilities and the sudden rash of deaths. Not only that, but she may very well be at the center of a dark faerie prophecy promising destruction to all paranormal creatures.

So much for normal.

Review: I absolutely loved this book! The ending was totally unexpected and I can't wait for the next book, Supernaturally, to come out on the 26th.
