I really want to be able to give this book more than 3 stars...but I just can't! If would give the series an overall rating of 4 stars, whilst I love Richelle Mead's writing, this series didn't hold my attention as well as Vampire Academy or Storm Born series has, and so I would recommend those series to others first.
So, what did I think of Succubus Revealed? It wrapped up the series in a nice little bow, but it was so predictable! I think that Mead sowed the seed in earlier books and this just kind of tied up the loose ends. It lacked the intrigue and mystery that Georgina was solving in the previous books, and the drama was left to Roman and Hugh to unveil - as we don't read from their point of view, we didn't get any of the unravelling of the clues (although it was fairly obvious what was going to happen!)
Seth, although quirky and likeable, just didn't do it for me and perhaps this is why this series lacked something in my opinion. And, what happened to Roman?! The supporting characters of the series were kind of deserted at the end, I understand the logistics behind the reasoning but still... Georgina seemed to do everything for her friends when she was a succubus and once she became human, she really did put that world behind her, and I think this goes against her original character traits?
I'm really hoping that the final installment of the storm born series is better than this - I have read that it is a big book (hoorah as this book was tiny!) and I hope it doesn't feel as rushed as the Kincaid series.
Glad I read the books, but would only recommend to true Richelle Mead fans.

Succubus Revealed was the first book I've read written by Richelle Mead. I got this book in a book fair because it was very cheap! I didn't even know that this was the last book in a series.
Despite being part of a series, I didn't feel lost and could easily follow the story. However, it didn't spark any excitement in me, especially the first half of the book. I felt like this book could have been much shorter. I found myself skimming over several parts, i.e. the bowling match. The parts that drew me in were when Seth was hypnotized and Georgina was in trial. I didn't read all of the books, so I can't say anything about the character development in this one. Carter and Roman seem like wonderful characters!
I felt like the plot had so much potential, but overall, this book fell short of my expectations.

This has been an amazing series, and this book was the cherry on top! Georgina knows there is something wrong with her contract, but she can't figure out what, until now. I have to say I guessed, but I was still surprised! I really didn't see this coming! I don't think I could be happier with the ending of this book! The characters are amazing, I fall in love with them every time I open a new installment, and the plots for each book are awesome and they work and flow right into the next! Mead is an amazing author, and is getting better with every book! This book was just as fun and funny as the others, though the hurdles Georgina had to go through were crazy, but the end, oh gosh, the end! I think I smiled over the ending of this book for about a week, it was that great! Mead did so well creating these amazing, funny, and lovable characters, and I can't wait to read this book again!
WOW! what an ending!!
I secretly didn't want it to end up the way it did, just because it was quite predictable and I was hoping she would end up with one of the other men that was in her life. Georgina was a fabulous character I had high hopes that she would go against the norm and end up the opposite of a succubus, possible something close to Carter. I had a soft spot for carter and thought possibly something would develop between his character and Georgina but it obviously wasn't on the cards.
I enjoyed this book a lot more than the other books, a few of the books along the way sort of went around in circles but this book developed really nicely and the ending worked well even if it wasn't the way I wanted it to play out.

There's nothing better then a book with a superb ending. And the best endings are always the one with a little heartbreak right along side the good.
Georgina Kincaid was a great heroine. Did she behave stupidly at times? Sure. But so do all the people I love most. Georgina felt realistic.
As Great as Georgina was, the cast of surrounding characters was even better. Succubus Revealed highlighted these characters with some of the best moments.
Writing the reviews for newly released books is always so hard because I really don't want to write anything that would even remotely be a spoiler. So, in order to protect the surprises, i'm going to just stop there.

. . . I headed off toward my husband and the rest of my life, off to be worthy of my soul.
Georgina's story is one of my favourites. I could read this time and time again if I didn't have so many other books in my TBR shelf.

Not may favorite ending. But it was lovely and sappy.
With what was revealed in this book, it's not surprising that Seth and Georgina couldn't stay away from each other. I was surprised at the twist. I never really thought of it. I am so glad that they got their happy ever after. I am glad that I waited until all of the book were out before finishing the series.
