Sweet Peril and Sweet Reckoning by Wendy Higgins

So, I had a long weekend of being sick in which all I did

was read. Therefore, I am combining my 

review of the final two books in the Sweet Evil series by

Wendy Higgins.

KAIDAN ROWE <3

Sweet Peril was SO much better than I expected.

It has been quite a journey, already, seeing Anna come from being

a perfect little angel, to this party girl who must

save the world. I can't tell you

how heart broken I was when Kaidan was being a 

jerk to Anna. I literally cried (although it's not very hard to make me cry).

I really didn't think that Anna and Kaidan would end up together 

when I started this book. I must admit that

I went into goodreads and read the reviews and spoil 

some of the ending just so I could make sure it was a good ending!

And OH MY FREAKING GOD was it a magical ending. 

 Kaidan Rowe is a bowl full of steaming hottness! Keep a glass

of water nearby because you will be swooning and all

kinds of hot for Mr. Kai. SPOILER ALERT: I was crushed,

but also thought it was so cute, that Kaidan was only

pretending to hate Anna because of her father. I would

have felt differently about him if he had let one of those Dukes keep him

from her.

Overall, this is a very well rounded book and I was

happy that the love story was saved for the end and that the majority 

of the book was dedicated to Anna finding her own strength.

Then there was Sweet Reckoning. 

What a great ending to a series! What I loved most was that it wasn't

a perfectly happy ending, but it wasn't too devastating where it ruined

the whole series. People died, and while it was tragic, it 

made it an intriguing read.

 At times I found it a little hard to believe that the Dukes

continued to be fooled by the Nephilim when they have been around for centuries. 

I think they would've been a bit smarter and aggressive if

they were even slightly suspicious of someone. I mean come on, they're demons!

I thought the ending battle would be a bit bigger, and that

the angels would make an appearance. It was kind of disappointing that they didn't.

But, I still really enjoyed it while I was reading it. I would give Sweet Peril 5 stars

and Sweet Reckoning 4. 

Sweet Evil by Wendy Higgins

 

So, after completing the Harry Potter series I've had a lot of trouble finding a book 

I can fully get into. I read the last two books in one of my all time 

favorite series and was so disappointed I didn't even want

to write a review because I feared my emotions were

skewed due to my undying love for Harry Potter and all it's beloved

characters. 

I read two complete books without getting fully enveloped in them, 

and started two others that I reluctantly put down. Finally

I stumbled upon Wendy Higgins' series Sweet Evil. When I began

reading I was rolling my eyes thinking "Oh joy, another

sappy love story with no strong plot what so ever."

However, I pushed forward telling myself that I had to allow myself 

to get through more than just 1 or 2 chapters. Needless to say, I am

over joyed that I pushed on with this book.

So many crazy emotions invaded me while reading this book

and it was a very blissful change. The story line is very unique

and has some very clever plot lines and character choices. It is still

not turning out as I keep expecting it to, which I absolutely

love in a book. This isn't your typical love story where

in the end the two confess their love and end up

together only to live out the remainder of the series together

with sappy undying love. Oh no, Book 2 and they are 

still not together and Kaidan is still an ass. Might I just

pause here to say that I LOVE the name Kaidan!!!

This book deals with angels in demons, but not

in a way that every other angel book does. It all just felt very genuine to me 

and Wendy is an exquisite writer. I am over joyed that

all the books in this series are out because I am 

extremely inpatient when it comes to books that I love.. Over all, Anna (Our main

character) is such a sweet and innocent girl. But, she definitely

showed us that although she is legit a saint, she's still

got some bad-assery in her

I highly recommend this book to my peeps of all ages. There's

suspense, mystery, drama, romance and the supernatural.

I give this a very strong 5 stars!

 

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

I just finished reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. This book

is a pure masterpiece. I was hesitant about this series

when I first started, but this final installment

completely blew my mind. JK Rowling was truly brilliant in every
 aspect of characterization, suspense, plot, etc...
I will forever be a Harry Potter

fan and this book in particular is at the very top of my favorite reads.

For those who haven't read this, I won't give too much away.

My mind was completely blown when Snape's memories

were revealed to us. It was the most unsuspecting aspect

of the story. Snape was one of the bravest characters and I certainly

cried so hard after reliving his memories.

I felt a little angry towards Dumbledore because it seemed he only

became close with Harry so that Harry would kill Voldemort,

not because he "loved" him. It was heart breaking to see

some of our beloved, innocent characters die. Truly heartbreaking.

Everyone needs to read this series!! I Give this book Above and beyond 5 Stars!!!
