Awaken by Meg Cabot

Lovely ending, so funny and entertaining! I wasn't very keen on it in the beginning of the book, all characters were annoying the hell out of it, but right now, I just can't "stay mad" at them, I think of them as real people, people whom I'd like to meet in real life.
I bet Kayla, Frank, Hope, Mr.Liu and me would be the greatest of friends ;) - as in, we would annoy everyone around us to death!

Meg Cabot truly is on my TOP 10 favorite authors :)

Kind of made up for Underworld, but maybe my expectations were just really low to begin with.

Read the first two books first, or else you will be so confused, you'll think you're reading a Pirates of the Caribbean 6.
The entire novel is basically the big fight scene usually reserved for the end of a novel. I recommend reading all three books close together in fact.
Meg Cabot does wrap everything up in a satisfying manner, although I wish she had focused more on Pierce being the light to Henry's dark. But over all I liked all the characters and thought Meg Cabot has created another great series :)

This didn't have the awesome "last book of the series" syndrome. The one that makes the book a hit or miss. The novel was good, but dragged at places. I loved some of the twists, others were too unrealistic. Need I remind Cabot, this is a story, not an analysis paper. No teenaged girl thinks like that. Even one whose boyfriend is a death deity.

Disappointing conclusion to this series. I was mostly bored by this book and found it a chore to get through. I almost didn't finish it. I wouldn't recommend this for teenagers. The author threw in a lot of unnecessary stuff like a drinking/drug party, teenagers having sex, etc. Wish the author would have focused more on the story.

I didn’t really like this series. It was too simple and the writing style wasn’t my cup of tea either. That being said I’m glad I finished it but wouldn’t recommend this series to anyone.

I was very pleased with the ending to this trilogy :)
I love John.. He's just ravishing!!!
<3 nom nom nom!!

John and Pierce are just adorable together!! And her thought process is naughty! :) but not Rated R stuff.
Even though I only give it three stars does not mean it isn't a five star. This series was just not my cup of tea! It was a great quick read and I would recommend it to younger people.
