Chaotic by Kelley Armstrong
4.0
Four reasons to read Chaotic:
1) I like Hope more in this story than I do in her POV books because she's an awful lot more relatable. Here, we get to see her as an amateur investigator and agent. She makes mistakes, catches herself, and keeps things entertaining while she does it.
2) There is something very appealing about Karl when he isn't being overbearing.
3) Hope and Karl work well together. They bring out a spark in each other that often generates fun back-and-forths and heated interactions.
4) It's a caper story. A bit more violent than its peers, but still a caper story and those are always fun.
Two drawbacks to Chaotic:
1) The story is action-packed yet somehow still manages to feel slow. This is a recurring problem with Hope's POV. She spends too much time thinking, and the story has to stall every time she has a vision. The pacing did pick up about halfway through, though.
2) Even though Hope is more relatable in this story, she's still a little bit annoying. She's so polite at times that she turns into a doormat.
