I mean Roth and Daemon are basically the same but a different creature >.< I did find the triangle wasn't so bad though bc one was more of a... confidant I guess. I mean obv they were attracted to each other but not being physically possible to be together kind of put a halt on the cliché triangle of being completely torn I guess. It just didn't give me that annoying vibe, thankfully. I did find the plot was the best part in this one, too. I loved the whole world with the twist regarding her history. I also don't true the gargoyles at all! I'm curious to see what's going to come in book 2!Gisellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16953187386418088952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-84029677487275169962014-03-15T02:28:20.801+01:002014-03-15T02:28:20.801+01:00I hate the cover on this book - I would never carr...I hate the cover on this book - I would never carry it with me anywhere! - but I am intrigued by the plot.

It definitely has the same spark as the other characters, so it's a shame that Layla seemed to not have it. :( But I get where you're coming from when they seem a bit typical of her characters, I mean, I love JLA, and the characters are amazing, but they do seem to all have the same...charm, I guess. You can tell who the author is, if you know what I mean. Hope you enjoy the next a lot better! :)<br /><br /><a href="http://studioreads.blogspot.co.uk" rel="nofollow">Kirsty @ StudioReads</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11957514015448707063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-17137450123774223372014-03-14T18:03:28.596+01:002014-03-14T18:03:28.596+01:00Thank you, Mari!

I didn't really think this book had any paranormal in it because of it's cover, but now that I know it does, it's definitely more appealing. Too bad that the characters disappointed you though. Great review.<br /><br />-MariAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17045558423044874125noreply@blogger.com
