Book Review: Enchanted Chaos: Sky & Foster's Novel (Book #1 - #2) By Jessica Sorensen
Enchanted Chaos Series: Sky & Foster's Complete Novel - Jessica Sorensen

 

My Review Of Book #1:

 

This started off iffy and then grew into something I couldn't put down! I loved the concept with the powers and the different universe they came from. Though the six male characters did blur together for me, with the exception of Foster and Max.

 

Skylin is thrust into a not-so-steller situation when her parents disappear. Even though she only has a few months until her 18th birthday she's being obligated to move in with a family she's never even heard of. Her attitude, anger, and bitterness are understandable from the beginning. I liked how she developed a backbone of steel throughout the story. I also liked how she was still unsure about Foster after all the new information that was thrown at her in the first book.

 

I wasn't a fan of Foster from the beginning. The reason Max was one of the guys that stood out to me was because I liked how he treated Skylin and welcomed her even though the circumstances weren't ideal. Foster was standoffish and a complete jerk for at least the first half of the first book. It's later revealed the reason behind that but I'm still on edge about it. He also turned into a different person through those revelations. So we'll see how I feel about him in the next book.

 

Overall I liked this story! I love that the author released a non-reverse harm version of it. Reverse harm novels aren't for me. I always find myself liking the overall storylines of reverse harm novels so it was great to read the story and not have all that in between. 

 

My Favorite Quotes:

 

"The truth sort of hurts like a b*tch, though."

 

"You're about as chill as a god damn pixie jacked up on faerie dust."

My Review Of Book #2:

 

This was a great continuation of the initial story! Everything felt like it started moving at a faster pace. Though I would have liked there to be more story in between Sky getting attacked or in trouble.

 

Sky still has her backbone in this novel. Though as kick*ss as she's supposed to be, things work in her favor way too many times by sheer dumb luck. I would love to see her get a handle on her powers and start living up to what everyone loves to say about her being so damn special and unique. 

 

Foster has melted my heart in this novel enough for me to be open to the idea of liking him. His backstory is presented at the beginning of this book and I can understand where he's coming from and how he's had to live before finding Sky. He's actually very sweet and kind. He doesn't push her into anything she doesn't want and asks for consent on a regular basis.

 

Overall this is a good story and I'm very curious as to how this family and Sky save their worlds. The world building wasn't as prominent in this book but I still liked what was presented.

 

My Favorite Quotes:

 

"Trust. What a strangely foreign word. A strangely foreign word that is frightening to feel."

 

"But one day, you'll let go of the past and trust yourself."

 

"She said that love was like this wonderful but chaotic burst of emotions that consumed her."

Review: Contagious Chaos book three
Contagious Chaos (The Contagium Series Book 3) (Volume 1) - Emily Goodwin

I received this book to give an honest review.

I have fell in love with Orissa this butt kicking zombie slayer and her beloved Hayden and their group.
It seems that you don't have to worry just about zombies but also those who are alive and breathing as well. We see how Orissa and her group encounter a new group of people who are not friendly and when Orissa is kidnapped all hell breaks loose.
We see what truly happens when you mess with the compound and the huge family it has become. You mess with one, you mess with all and that is no joke. We get to see just how smart Orissa is when it comes to situations and surviving this is one girl I want on my team.
Hayden actually gets a surprise with this one and I was very glad for him he needs some good in his life besides Orissa.
Now it seems that Orissa will find herself in a not so good situations with some bad folks and I felt for her but she is strong and we see this especially when she is put through the ringer. That is what I really enjoy with these zombie books. You have characters like her that are strong and not just some helpless person.
This group of survivors is more than zombie slayers they are a true family and I love it. I really love how they all can joke around but be serious when need be and take care of business.
At the end we are left with that lovely cliffhanger and I am going to be diving into book four to see what we can find out with Hayden and Orissa. It seems way to juicy to not be told.
This is an amazing zombie series that I think once you start you won't put down. There is romance, action, suspense on what will happen next, heartache. It blends well together to make a good story.

Brink of Chaos (End Series, The) - 'Tim LaHaye', 'Craig Parshall'

Disappointing ending (if it is the ending) to the Joshua Jordan trilogy as I found myself constantly wanting to get into this novel, but could not. The book had its moments, but overall I found a mash of thinly developed characters in a lot of different loose threads that just was not satisfying. I think trying to cram too many plot points and too many characters into too small a novel is usually a recipe for disaster, and this pretty much falls into that category. Read at your own risk.

Walk Through Fire (Chaos) - Kristen Ashley

Hey, it's another Kristen Ashley book that follows the same exact storyline as 48 out of 49 of her other books.  I want so badly for her to do something new and exciting.  So badly.  

 

The plus side for this is that, despite being the same storyline, it's still entertaining.  One scene actually got me seriously choked up because the emotions were just spot on.  Seriously spot on.  Kudos for KA for absolutely hitting the nail on the head with that one.  It isn't terribly often lately when her books can do that for me anymore, they've just become too repetitious.  So, I have to give credit when credit is due.  

 

The downside is obviously the fact that we are just getting the same thing over and over again.  I say this again and again when I review KA's newest releases, so I'm sure everyone is tired of seeing it almost as much as I am tired of saying it.  It's frustrating all around that I keep hoping that something will change and it never happening.  I wish I could just convince myself to stop reading her books.  But I'm a masochist and I just can't do it.  I hope that once she finally starts a new series that it will actually be new series.  Please Kristen Ashley, for the love of Jim, write a NEW SERIES with a completely NEW STORYLINE.  See this (somewhat rectangular, but go with it) box ----> []?  STEP OUT OF IT and see what else you can do.
