I assume I finished this, but I fell out of working with Shelfari, and honestly I don't remember any of it. Oops.

I really enjoy this series and #6 did not disappoint. This was a strong and fast read for me. While some things happened in this book that saddened me, I know those things were needed to move the story along. I really like Anna and how she has embraced her vampirism. I'll definitely buy the next one!

Ahh I love Anna Strong. Im so glad we finally got to the start of her actually BEING the Chosen and learning more about it. Of course the books said she was before but its nice to have some details on it. I must say she really needs to tell David the truth I want to see how that turns out instead of having all the issues between them. Cant wait to see what is Next for Anna.

*Contain spoilers if you haven’t read the previous books in this series.
This is one of my favorite series ever! It was one of the first series I read when my UF and PNR obsession started and I definitely anxiously wait for each new book, every year. Jeanne was awesome in giving me an ARC and I simply devoured it, from beginning to end.
Chosen starts off not long after the events of Retribution and we find Anna in a quite peaceful moment in her life. Working with David, dating Lance and living a mostly human life has been good to her, well, let’s not forget the blood drinking. Of course, this simple period in time is nothing more than the calm before the storm and what a storm it is!
A vampire attacks Anna in her own garage early on in the novel and from then on it’s non-stop action from beginning to the very end. The previous book, Retribution, left so many questions unanswered and even though I really enjoyed it, I was expecting more from it. This time though, we get a LOT of answers and the story moves forward quite nicely with some unexpected developments and a lot of twists that will definitely change everything from now on.
I LOVED this book! It was an amazing addition to a one of my favorite series and it left me wanting so much more! Anna finally reaches the 1st anniversary of her Becoming (Vampire) and with it we finally find out what it means to be the Chosen one. If Anna Strong thought her life has been hard since she became Vampire, in Chosen her life gets turned inside out, upside down more than a few times.
I really enjoyed seeing Anna grow in this novel. She goes through so much! Pain, disappointment, betrayals and even finding out things about herself that she never knew; and even though I wanted to smack some sense into her sometimes, I feel like she has become as an amazing person and how much she has evolved from book one is definitely jaw-dropping.
The Anna Strong series is a must read to any Urban Fantasy fan and Chosen is a wonderful addition to this awesome series! If you haven’t read this series yet, you really should get a move on and get ready for the release of Chosen, you won’t regret it!

Another great installment with Anna!! I really really enjoyed this book alot! I still wish Anna would be more open to embrassing her new life and being the Chosen, altho now she doesn't really have a choice! Looking forward to her next adventure for sure.

I am sad about Lance and am still hoping that someday she comes around to confiding in David about her true nature....thenia's review against another edition

I liked the first books of this series better than the ones following. Anna has a long way to go and she only just starting showing any interest in the new world she's been thrust into, although unwillingly. She even realized that she could have made her life a lot easier if she'd only listened to people that wanted to teach her a few things (they all had their agentas, sure, but still, she would have learned and done whatever it is she wanted with the knowledge). I do not propose that she does what people tell her (force, threaten, manipulate) to do. On the contrary. I think that her making her own decisions is admirable, but I find the way she blocks the whole world and ignores good advice kind of annoying.
There's hope that she's starting to see the light in this book and I hope she manages to "grow up" a little in the ones following.
