Review:
Story: Per Goodreads, I've read this book twice. Once in 2016 and once now. The truth is, I know I've read it at least three times now. Once sometime before 2013 and then the two times listed. This story never gets old for me. It's one of my favorite series of all times. It has one of my favorite characters of all time. Rose Hathaway. This is actually my first time listening to the story in audiobook. It was a different experience, but in a good way. I also kind of want to go grab my copy of the 10th anniversary edition and read the short stories!
Characters: Rose is one of my favorite characters. Hands down. She's constantly being misunderstood. She takes the high road and doesn't really correct people. She lets them draw their own conclusions. Then there's Dimitri. He's tough, but he's fair. You have Christian who's just such a snarky being. I know we're supposed to like Lissa. Sometimes I do, but there are times she just kind of shows behaviors that I don't care for.
Critiques: As if!
Narration: It was really great. It put me right into the world and made me not want to leave it.
Final Thoughts: I picked this book up for a challenge for a readathon I'm participating in. I'm really glad I did it. It was so great to step into the world again. It makes me want to disappear from the world and devour the rest of the series now. Maybe soon. Maybe I'll have to work on getting the rest of the series in audiobook when I get more credits in. I have all of the Bloodlines series in audiobook. I need to read those as well. This is one of my favorite series of all time.
