This is probably my least favorite paranormal series so far. I'm obviously in the minority here.

The story was painfully slow. Dru is not a very interesting character, and she thinks way too much for her own good. I think there were way too many conversations inside her head and it kind of just really slowed down the whole story.

Characters were a little boring, even her love interests weren't very interesting. I didn't care at all for Graves or Christophe.

One of the worst things about this book, especially in Strange Angels, was the lack of characters. For the most part it was just Graves and Dru, and personally I think that made the book really boring. And then there are a bunch of new characters when she reaches the school, but she doesn't even bother learning any of their names. Annoying.

I think this book could have been great. It just wasn't written very well. There are a lot of things that needed explaining, but I feel like I wasn't given enough to really understand everything. Way too many terminologies that somehow don't stick to your mind as well as they should.

Unfortunately I already bought all the books in the series. Thank God they were on sale.

I’m so glad this was a 2-in-1 book because I couldn’t get enough. A lot of the books with both Vampires and Werewolves tend to get real cheesy real quick- not this. If I wasn’t so busy trying to renovate my house I would have finished this a lot sooner because I didn’t want to put it down. Dru is an awesome character with all the typical fantasy-related elements and none of the helpless insta loving female traits a lot of mc’s have in YA fantasy. Graves is a wonderful companion character and I can’t wait to see how his character grows and develops through this world.
