The Legend Of The Blue Eyes (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
Let me first say, I LOVED THIS BOOK! There are so many vampire books out there today, now don't get me wrong I love vampire books, but they tend to be overdone and predictable. This book is NOT predictable; I love how it not like anything else I have read. I think that when people read vampire books they always have this habit of comparing it to Twilight. Let me say that THIS BOOK IS IN NO WAY LIKE TWILIGHT! The sappy girl meets boy, boy turns out to be a vampire thing is kind of overdone. Yes, I fell into the Twilight trap prepared for this to be something similar. This book is SO MUCH MORE & SO MUCH BETTER than anything I was expecting. Ari is not some weak little human girl she is a bad a**! I am hooked and starting the 2nd book now, I can't get enough! **I received this book in exchange for an honest review (LoP or Lovers of Paranormal)**As a first book in a series this book has everything needed to draw the reader into the world of the characters. The main character is Arianna, she is an ordinary girl up until her sixteenth birthday when we begin her story. It is on her sixteenth birthday that she finds out she is part of not one but two secret races who both feed on blood. She is thrown into a world she never even knew existed, finds out about a family who abandoned her in order to protect her and meets a number of boys madly in love with her. All of this aside you know you are going to love this book as soon as you get to know Arianna's character, she is in my opinion a perfect heroine- sassy, smart, loyal to a fault and very aware of herself. In short I loved her character. The secondary characters include Delvin the boy her grandfather has trained to protect her, Turner a werewolf who places his loyalty with her, Gabrielle her uncle who always finds a way into her life and Molina a female in her protection unit. The boys play a big part in the development of Arianna's character as she progresses into the role she is to play. The pacing was great not leaving everything to the last minute but still going out with a big finale type scene leaving us wanting more and leading nicely into the second book. You can tell by the pacing of this book that the series is going to be killer with the perfect combination of description vs dialogue and the perfect timing of each and every factor contributing towards the overall plot. The story line was brilliantly original with a few new paranormal species and just the right about of romance. 3.5 stars, a great read by an author I will look out for in the future. Review to book 2 coming soon...
