bookbuyer 's review for:

White Hot Kiss by Jennifer L. Armentrout

3.0

---

So I'm a bit torn about the rating for this book as my emotions are a bit torn as well. I did like this book and it's made me eager to read the next. But at the same time I felt it was a bit cliche.

I liked Layla. She was a pretty good character. I felt for her when she found out who her parents were. I felt particularly bad when she found out that Elijah was her father and Petr her half brother. That was somehow worse than her finding out her mother is the 'mother' of all demons/evil and that her mother was trapped in Hell.

I liked Roth even if he was slightly stereotypical for a demon posing as a human. I liked the tongue ring although I don't know how Layla missed that until her kissed her. My experience is that you can usually see them whenever the person talks.

I also liked Zayne although that whole starcrossed lovers bit while eventually wear on me. I hope he ends up with Danika.

I did not really like Abbot although I don't think I was suppose to at least till towards the end.

The whole warden and demon thing was somewhat new and I liked the author's take on it.

I'm looking forward to the next book! :)

Edit:

I have about the same feelings as I did before. I think I'm even going to remove a star. It's about a 3.5 for me now. I'm sadly a bit more cynical this year. :/

My thoughts about Layla are pretty much the same. I still find Petr creepy and weird.

The tongue ring thing is still the same. How did she miss that? And where is his other piercing? I'm VERY curious now. lol.
