I loved it! Action, romance, snarky dialog. It was a very fun read. ( ) Night School is another hit by Mari Mancusi that will leave you hooked and breathless. So we've seen vampires, and we've seen lycan...but can you believe that Mari Mancusi added in another magical creature? Yup. She did! Fairies! When I initially read these books when they came out, I'll admit I didn't like the fairies that were added. But now, as an adult who constantly sees giant film and book universes I understand the need for such an addition - and it does, oddly, work!! I think it's a cute addition, and I would like to see Mari build more into these ideas in future installments. Rayne is our lead in this book, and her sassiness is there (as always). And, as always, this book is fast paced and kept me interested. Plus, on top of it all, Mari tops her plot lines and goes a little crazier. She always seems to know how to go bigger and better. One thing I really like about these books is Mari seems to understand that it can be lengthy between the times you read her books - so she summarizes what happened last. In the first couple books it annoyed me (because I was reading them back to back) but when I realized that there is typically a wait in between and you might forget what our heroines were up to, then I was all on board! If this is something you don't like, you can always skip!! But I think this is a nice addition that'll help readers out. I did have an issue with this book - we've grown to love Jareth and Magnus so much, and they weren't in this book as much as I would like. Yes, they weren't integral to the story but it was a shame to pick up this book and not have some epic storylines with them. They were still there, but not as much as they could have been. Five out of five stars. Yes, this review is out of order. I'm sorry my friends! I'll post my Bad Blood (Blood Coven Vampires #4) later on tonight or early tomorrow! Once again my friends, I was hooked from the very first page. As with all the installments in this series, you can pick up the book and instantly be up to speed with what Rayne and Sunny are currently up to! Mari has a great habit of reviewing earlier events, so that no matter how long it has been since you read the last installment, you'll remember right away where you left off with these awesome and crazy twins. If you'll recall my last review, I missed the action that usually ensues in these books. This one definitely sated my action need, and then some. I'm in love! In Night School there is yet another new supernatural being added in. Yes, yes I know. You're thinking, vampires, werewolves, what else IS there? Oh but my friends, there's more. If you've read the synopsis above you now know that Sunny and Rayne face their most difficult challenge yet. FAIRIES. The way that Mari Mancusi built her fairies and their world was fantastic! I won't give too much away, it's too much fun to find out for yourself. I'll leave you instead to ponder over why these stereotypical glittery and flitting beings are so dangerous. What I will say is that I loved their names! Cracked me up to no end. Oh and the ending? Once again I'm waiting with bated breath for the next book. I think by now you've realized that I'm partial to the parts of this series that are narrated by Rayne. Let me tell you why. She's feisty, she takes on any challenge, and she loves her family with such a deep emotion that she is willing to put herself in harms way to protect them. Sunny is like the yin to Rayne's yang, and without both of them I don't think the books would be half as enjoyable. Still, I'm partial to Rayne's snark and wit. It's true. Thus why this book made me laugh out loud, and subsequently have people stare at me on the bus. Don't read this book in public. Look, if you haven't been reading my other reviews and don't yet know how I feel about this series, let me break it down plain and simple. I LOVE THESE BOOKS. The humor is smart, the characters are amazingly well written, and there is just enough tips of the hat to pop culture to keep you giggling. (References to Twilight anyone?) The point is that I should have by now convinced to you to read these books. They're well worth your time trust me! I've always loved Rayne's POV as much as I love Mari's spontaneous ability to make things more interesting by the end of the books with another cliffhanger. This is no True Blood season 3. Mari had decided that she's finished with the romance genre and head on to adventure. I've enjoyed the series from the start and Mari's attempt to trying to bond with her readers from facebook community is always a welcome. She's by far the most interactive YA authors and this made her fans loved her most. (the pressure is on!) For the last book, Rayne's parents has a revelation that they were full-blooded faerie and Sunshine was the heiress of the throne. But now more fae assasins (with weird Disney name) are targeting the family and both of the girls was moved to the vampire slayer schoolwhere all of them hated vampires (Q: Rayne = a vampire/faerie/teenage vampire slayer). Then there was Night School, where all the elites of the school went and never returned. And then it all started when Sunshine was kidnapped... Overall, I enjoyed the book so much that it always crack me up especially the names and characters. Disney is heavy in this book as the faeries reflects our world's children's facination over disney characters and beginning to forget the fairy tales before. p/s: I finally got the package of Vampire-in-Training. Its in my wallet :P aucune critique | ajouter une critique
