So, I read this a while back and imagine my surprise when I saw that I didn't write a review. I, Annika, did not write a review for this freaking awesome book that blew my mind. Ugh, I'm disappointed in myself...So, Estelle, 'the beast/monster' , is a wonderful main character. She lives with her over achiever mother and spoiled sister who take WAY too much advantage of her and her powers. It leaves you wondering, if she never had these powers, would they even talk to her? Obviously if you read the first book, you already know about Lola, Gabe, and Rex. The cool trio's going to turn into an epic, fantastic, four when Estelle comes along.I'm just gonna say that the banter between Rex and Estelle was absolutely amusing. I enjoyed every second of it and I think we all knew a little romance was gonna come on. I mean, imagine this book, without ANY romance. Scary, huh? Now, what I really liked about this book- other than the sweet romance- was the originality of the whole story. The gypsies, the cool past lives, the surprises and whatnot. There wasn't anything about this book that I didn't like - except Tahtiana. (Face it, she was never meant to be.)***To the people who read this book- (I just have to say this: the part in the airport? SO FREAKING SWEET.)Back to my review:Foretell was creatively written and intrigueing in every possible way, and I wonder what Belle Malory has in store for Wanderlove, next. SPECTACULAR BOOK!!! (Deserves way more than five stars, just saying) ;) Foretell carries on where Wanderlove left off, for the most part, but the story is now told from a different perspective. Readers are now taken into the thoughts and experiences of The Oracle, otherwise known as Estelle. Estelle first learned of her curse shortly after her father’s death. She’d always known her ability could be dangerous in the wrong hands. In fact, her own mother and sister have fully abused her abilities to obtain wealth and fame. But it wasn’t until meeting Lola, Rex and Gabe that Estelle realized just how much danger she and the world could be in because of her ability. She also learns that gypsies from all over the world are hunting for her, trying to find her so that they can use her abilities for their own gain. After earning the trust of Estelle, Lola, Gabe and Rex take Estelle to safety, but that safety is soon compromised when Estelle decides to try and break the curse. This journey will lead her to love, heartbreak, and even to the brink of death. Will she break the curse or will she forever serve evil people? Again, I am fully wowed by Belle Mallory’s story. Something about her writing just captivates me. It’s so real to me, as if the whole gypsy world, the curse of the Oracle and the reincarnation of gypsy souls truly does exist. I also find myself fully engrossed in her stories. The writing flows so easily, so beautifully. The characters wonderfully created. I love how they seem so much like real people. All in all, I’m a little sad that there probably won’t be another book in the Wanderlove series. (Although who knows except Ms. Mallory.) Nothing has changed for me. I am a dedicated Belle Mallory fan and look forward to reading anything she writes in the future. A huge thank you to the author for creating a story that will forever stay with me. I am certain I will read both books again sometime in the future.
What do You think about Foretell (2000)?
Almost as good as the first book but not quit! I still loved it though!
