Storm and Fury by Jennifer L. Armentrout
4.0

So I didn't even read the synopsis when I picked this book up. I enjoy Jennifer L. Armentrouts books, they are simple and fun when I'm in need of something not deep at all.

So I didn't realize this was a spin off of one of her old series The Dark Elements and I had only read the first book as the others weren't out yet and I forgot about the trilogy. So, when I got closer to the end I had to smack myself and realize who characters were and now I had The Dark Elements spoiled for me haha oh well.

I really enjoyed diving into this world, it's something new-ish especially something about gargoyles which was super fun. And to have "the chosen one" or "unique born child with special unique abilities" or "the last of her kind" troupes is fun to read.

The characters were fun and the twists weren't something I saw coming and when it did happen I was like, "well duh!" as I slap my forehead but that also tells you that I was so invested in the story.

I DO love a good bad boy BUUUUUT that is not who Zayne was, he was a good guy just a good guy and I wasn't bored with him like I usually am with "good guys" I know that sounds horrible but it's fiction and I read to be entertained SO for a "good guy" he wasn't boring and I think that's super important to note. I loved him.

I LOOOOOOVED the spunk of Trinity as a character she was everything I love in a female character, snarky, fun, flawed, good, loyal and not annoying. She was awesome which again is important to be able to connect with the characters and I definitely connected.

Overall it's just a fun story and I really enjoyed it. It's just simple good entertainment reading. Does that sentence even make sense....? anyways...
