Half-Blood by Jennifer L. Armentrout

4.0

First of this book reminded me A LOT of Vampire Academy. There are a lot of similarities to the characters as well the story itself. But since I loved the Vampire Academy Books I didn't mind it so much as long to will not stay that way in the rest of the books.
It is very nicely balanced with action, romance, surprise and heartbreak.

The characters are just beautiful.

I love Alex, she is smart most of the time, strong and very snarky, and I loved her snarky humor. Aiden, well how can someone not like Aiden? I hope we get to see a bit funnier site of him.
I knew from the second she met Seth what it meant and what it would be. I loved Seth and I can’t wait to see more of him and learn more about.


Overall 4 Stars from me, the only reason I gave it a 4 stars and not 5 was because it was very similar to the Vampire Academy, almost too similar. But I’m looking forward to the second book and can’t wait to see what happens next.

Favorite Quotes:

“You need to know about love. The things people will do for love. All truths come down to love, do they not? One way or another, they do. See, there is a difference between love and need. Sometimes, what you feel is immediate and without rhyme or reason. Two people see each across a room or their skin brushes. Their souls recognize the person as their own. It doesn't need time to figure it. The soul always knows… whether it’s right or wrong.”

“Since the night I saw you in Georgia, you've been under my skin. You got inside me, became part of me. I can’t shake it. It’s wrong.”
