Review "The hallowed ones" by Laura Bickle

I've got this book from Laura Bickle in exhange for a honestly review. Thank you very, very much! This story was really awsome.
  I must begun saying that the cover si a perfect combination with the plot. The girl with brown hair is Katie. She's on the verge of her Rumspringa, and that means that she can go Outside for while and decide if she wants to be baptized and live with plain folks or she'll live Outside.

   Plain folk is  a community, where Katie and her best friend, Elijah are living. I saw that Elijah's in love for K, but she doesn't really want to marry him or to be his girlfriend.

     At the beginning, everything seems OK, normal. Execpt maybe the ravens. But...Elijah's brothers, who're Outside are missing. And something happened. Something big. Why? Because everyone's missing from the Outside community. Just blood and creepy creatures. At start  I thought that the booko was about aliens. And that was kinda weird. When I founded out that's about vampires, I calmed down. There are no roomantic, beautiful vampires. Just evil. And this was different from other stories, and I enjoyed that. More, I was so scared during this book!  The vamps were really creepy.

     I didn't enjoyed by the book the missing of many descriptions. It's ok to have a book with a lot of action and to not bore the reader with description, but at leas two phrases, I need to know what's around the characters. The dialogues were good. Plain folks belive in God, and sometimes it was a bit to much faith. I mean, it's ok to belive in God, but sometimes it was to much. More, the contrast between light (God) and dark (vampires) was incredible.

     Ok, so next, the Bishop and the Elders announce that nowone's inside and no one's outside the gate. Me, I hated Bishop and the Elders. Such evil creatures, who are loving their powers, and don't care of others safety.
       Katie finds, that day, an Outsider, near the gate, who's hurt. The Elders wanted to kill hin, but Katie's pleases convince them to let him die by himself. Katie have a really big soul. She takes the boy and take care of him. Alex was his hame. I loved Alex. He was my favorite character. Lovely, brave and a good boy :)

         The story continues with Katie's fear for the vampires. OK, this proposition was completly wrong. If I ever met a brave character, the one is Katie! She's just so brave ! With the Hexenmeister's help(a witcher) she have at leat a chace to fight with with the vampires. First, she thinks that they weren't attacked because they have a sacred territory, but when the girl that she can't suffer inivite in the vamps... Elijah begun being a good friend, but he's turning into a bad one.

          If everyone will found out about Alex, and more about Katie's crush on him, and if the vampires will destroy everiything...well you'll find out by yourself reading this amaizing book! 

      I didn't enjoy the words in Germain. I don't know that language, so I didn't uderstood anything.

       I liked the character's evolution. And the suspence. It was full of suspence. Don't miss this book! You can't let it from your hand, really!

I'll give a four by five! 4/5

Review "Cicada" by Belle Whittington

 I wanted to read "Cicada" from the first second that I looked at her. I wanted to buy it, but I have not from where to, so I participated at Belle's giveaway on facebook. And guess what? I won! I was so happy! Three weeks later,"Cicada" was arriving to me, and I begun to read it. It took me so long because of school, and I haven't enought time to read.  But right now, I can say that this stunning book deserve to be read by everybody!

 Blair is the main character. She's sweet, strong, beautiful, a good friend and brave. I loved Blair. She and her friends, Andrew, her big brother, Natalie, David and Everett are very close to each other. I enjoyed that this story isn't a typical one, and that's it's complicated. Blair's father and brother died a few time ago. It's the beggining of summer, and she and her friends want to have fun, because when the school is going to begun, Blair will be kinda alone, her friends goining to college. 

   So...I isn't as safe as everyone thinks because they found a weird coccon, and it's complicated. The thing inside is a sort of alien, and the guys name him "Cicada". Everett fascination for bugs stunned me. He seems, at the beginning, the B-F-F guy type, but, during the book he became hot, beautiful, and you can't fall for him. Natalie is a secondary character. She's okay. David is her boyfriend. David seemed to me quite native, always purposing "Kill the Cicada", etc. Andrew is Blair's  brother and he's a kind of guy who seem to be who he's not, trying to be like his father and his brother, Aaron.

    In the dark woods, the kids are discovering a sort of alien, as I told, and Everett is taking this alien at his depository. The reseachs for the Cicada's origins continue, and the character's attention is catched by a big-weird building. I enjoyed a lot that the book is full of suspence. Is funny, lovely, antrenant and a quick read. I didn't get bored at all! I loved everything! My favorite character whas Blair, but I loved everyone.

    Again, I was stunned by Belle's way of writing. She's so good! And more, as person she's kind and sweet and love to speak with her fans.

"Cicada" is a good book. One of my best reads. I enjoyed more and more the way that the story is disposed, beginning with a antrenant plot, continuing with mystery, and finalizing with a explozive end. So antrenant!

About the love story, she's so sweet! So much drama and true love. I don't know what to say more...just: Cicada is a must to read for everyone! Loved it! Loved it!

This book have from me a : 5/5

Review "In my dreams" by Cameo Renae

 I've got this book from Cameo Renae in exchange for a honestly review. I thinked, from the beginning, that this book is stunning. And guess what? She is.

Lizzy Hayes is the main character.

 I like Lizzy. She can be my alter ego.She's smart, beautiful, cute, brave and lovely. As character, it's good created. Elizabeth await Michael to come, to celebrate their 4th anniversary. But...Michael is late - so not Michael. Lizzy falls asleep, and she have a bizzare dream. When she woke up, a call annonce her the most evil thing in the word: Michael is dead. In a car accident.

 Cameo knows how to make the readers being captivated by the subject of book, living every moment near Liz and I loved that. More, Michael comes in Liz's dreams, and here the'll be a lot of beautiful moment, descriptions good placed, and I enjoyed that a lot. Next,  Liz reached a strange call from a bizzare man, and she founds out that Michael has been killer, that Tyler(his best friend) is involved, and that the killer is outside and he's coming for her...

    At the beginning, Liz isn't such a good friend with Em, but by the book, by the chapters, they become good friends. Liz's mom is a person who drinks a lot, and her father leaved them a long time ago for a younger person. So, the main character, even if don't thinks that she's strong, she's a lot.
She's also brave, and modest, and manny other thigs. The point is that I loved her much. Next, Michael is a good boy. He's beautiful, and loves Lizzy . I found true love between them, not just sexual attraction. It was sooo lovely .

    About the action, it was full of it. Really. It happened so many things that sometimes I was asking: "What can happen how? It's over! " And I was wrong. So, if you want a thriller story with ghosts, I recommend you this book. It was so full of action!

    Look why I gaved a 4.5 and not a 5.5 : because it wasn't something new about the skelet: a boy, murdered, and the killer comes for his girlfriend. And look why I gaved a 4.5 - it had so many unic moments!
      And I falled, me too, for Michael. And...I am asking if this book will have a next. 'Cuz if she has, is on my 2read list!

The evil character is good. I mean, not as good, a good person, I was saying that he's soo tupid and during the book I wanted to come inside and punch his idiot fce. I enjoyed the part when Lizzy is ost throught the woods, and Michael helps her, I was so curious of what is goining to hapen. Then, in her dreams, Liz have visions of it is going to happen, and that really rules! So cool. And, when she met Lucy, a medium, the story become a lot more intresting

 As debut, it was awsome I always watched movies with killers, and ghosts, but I've never read a book with those themes
    The part with the comunications between Michael and Liz through dreams was awsome! I dislike the books whe a person die, and the others can't contact him anymore. But right now, it's possible, and I've been stunned by Cameo's imagination sometiimes. It rules!
      I can't tell you more about the action because I'll spoiler, but you'll be surprised, definetly.


   I definetly recommend this book to everyone, and again, I loved her so much!
