Una piacevole sorpresa. Nonostante il titolo potesse trarre in inganno, con la sua copertina che non fa presagire nulla più di una storiella da quattro soldi, sono rimasta colpita invece dallo spessore dei temi trattati. Dall'alcolismo al razzismo, al sesso per finire alla "politica" (certo tutto...
I'm changing the book rate as I realised something while typing this review.Dana, our protagonist is very good at annoying me. I don't dare write a review because that would be juat rants. But waiting for my sister to wake up is a very boring job to do. So here I am.So to have a brief introductio...
Though I try my best to be non-judgmental about it all, reading a book about Faeries did push me in how comfortable I was reading this book in a public place. Please don't be offended, I am simply saying that, though I loved the entire Faeriewalker trilogy by Jenna Black, I got a little pang of s...
I liked Jenna Black's "Devil Inside" series so I decided to give this new one a try. The premise is intriguing: people descended from the different pantheons of gods who can gain superpowers and immortality by killing those who have the seeds of immortality within.The story is dark (although not...
Less happened in this one, but at the same time OH SO MUCH MORE happened.Emma was an effing bitch that I wanted to kill myself. Yeah she went through some horrible stuff, but oh my god she was unreasonable when it came to Nikki which was really annoying. I disliked how we never got an answer as t...
OMG!!!! I MUST SAY THAT I REALLY TRULY ENJOYED THIS BOOK!!!!!! JENNA BLACK ROCKS!!!!! NIKKI IS EMPLOYED BY ANDERSON WHO HAS HIS OWN GOD-LIKE IMMORTAL POWERS. WHILE WORKING ON A DIFFERENT CASE FOR ANDERSON, BODIES START TURNING UP. "WILD DOGS" ATTACKS ARE WHAT THE PAPERS ARE SAYING, BUT THE FUNNY ...
Maybe I am a glutton for punishment - or I am in my 3rd trimester of pregnancy and have horrible insomnia! I continue to struggle with this series. I want to like the series yet it is missing something . The main character continues to drive me batty. I wish she would overcome her 'fear' of let...
My apologies to Dana's everywhere, but Dana doesn't strike me as a fae name, and she is half fae. I mean, librarian, math teacher, secretary - yes. But, Fairywalker - no. Not magical enough.I have read a lot of fairy books and this one doesn't really follow the fairy rules very well. These faerie...
I did really like this book. However I picked it up after reading a really boring one so it could be just rebound talking. The only thing that bothered me was how the mc won't stop obsessing over how hot the two main male fae guys she meets are. Like all the time. I did like this story and plan o...
I love this series! But I don't care for the heroine's love interest. Granted, there are quite a few right now, but I'm specifically referencing Ethan. I really, really, really don't like him. He's charming, but in a sexual predator sort of way and I do not like the fact that the heroine can't st...
Well, let's face it. We have gorgeous handsome sexy alluring Fae. So what's the problem? The problem is a very naive prude main character. Her life wasn't easy and it can't be easy with all the pressure on her. But she still hates her father for protecting her. Still thinks she can do better than...

The evil Elking wants her to sleep with him so he can take her powers. Dana is kept hidden by her dad to keep her safe,...
Review:I am interesting in this story. This short story got me wanting to know more like what happen next. Did the little sister finally got a real friend or did she finally control her magic. As for the short preview, I am a little confused. I want to know why the woman brought her in the office...
I don't find, that the three books were adult fiction at all. New Adult comes to my mind, same with Young Adult too. My TakeI really liked the first one, Dark Descendant and the second one, Deadly Descendant but this one? Oh, god.[ I agree with Kathy Davie comment ] Primarily because Nikki's ch...
J'avoue, j'ai bien accroché sur ces livres (tome 1, 2, 3) notamment parce que l’héroïne n'en est pas vraiment une. Elle a du caractère, elle est de mauvaise foi autant qu'elle est noble de coeur.Jenna Black a un style d'écriture mordant et fluide, et j'ai eu du mal à décrocher et poser le livre l...
This series is really starting to hit its stride. Most of the key players have been introduced and, along with the "mystery" focus of each individual book, there are multiple story arcs that are slowly developing book to book.The individual story for this book is a case of young man who goes from...

The furniture was good quality, if not particularly special, but Nadia imagined the wall of electronics that took up one whole side of the living room cost in the tens of thousands of dollars. Laid on the floor, the video screen would be big enough to serve as a bed, and with the number of speake...
It wasn’t the first time I’d felt that way—when school was out, I had to spend way too much time in the presence of my mother, the drunk—but it was even more welcome this year than most. This year, it promised a kind of normalcy that had disappeared from my life the moment I’d set foot in Avalon,...
I shivered and clutched the blanket around me, wondering if I would ever get warm again.Anger usually warms me up great, so I tried to summon a healthy dose of indignation to throw at Lugh. I didn’t know exactly what he’d done to me to break the walls around those memories, but it had been a dirt...
We kept our raiding party small—just me, Adam, and Barbie—for the sake of simplicity. Cooper was divorced and lived in the suburbs in a house that was meant to hold a family, not a single man. A rich family. Possibly with live-in help. The lights were on inside when we drove up, and there were no...
Jackson had shown way too much interest in her relationship with Hunter as it was, so she shouldn’t have been surprised when he showed up on her doorstep an hour before the date to “help her get ready.”While she was still sputtering awkwardly, he swept into her apartment in a cloud of Drakkar Noi...
I lurched to my feet, expecting an attack, but my brain finally kicked in and saw that the figure lying on the pavement in front of me was not made of trash. He looked to be around my age, maybe a little older. He propped himself up on his elbows on the pavement, blinking startlingly green eyes a...
