Review for Endure by Sara B. Larson

Title: Endure (Defy #3)

Author: Sara B. Larson

Genre: YA Fantasy

Below is the cover of Endure and my collection of Sara B. Larson books (including stuff I won from her giveaway)

Goodreads Summary:

At last, Alexa and King Damian are engaged to be married. But their lives are far from safe. The kingdom of Antion is under siege, and Rylan is a prisoner of the enemy. Even worse, Alexa remains at the mercy of the evil Dansiian Rafe, who controls her mind and can force Alexa to kill or harm Damian at any moment. Despite this, Alexa is determined to rescue Rylan, which soon leads her far from Damian and deep into enemy territory.

When she arrives, what awaits her is deadlier than anything she could have ever imagined: an army of black sorcerers and a horrifying plot to destroy the world as Alexa knows it. Will she be able to gather the strength to free herself, protect the love of her life, and save the land? Will there ever be true peace?

Acclaimed author Sara B. Larson has woven a stunning, romantic, and evocative finale to the Defy trilogy that is sure to leave readers breathless until the very last page.

Gabrielle's Review:

             This isn't the first time I have sat down and attempted to write a review for Endure by Sara B. Larson. Trying to wrap my mind around everything that happened in Endure is just about impossible for me. I've wondered for a week how my review could give the book and Sara. B Larson the credit they deserve. Well, first, I will start by saying how much Sara and her books have affected me and my life.

            The Defy Series changed my life. I'm not exaggerating. When I discovered Defy, I immediately fell in love with the characters, the story line, and the kick butt heroine. As the series progressed, Alexa overcame more and more obstacles. She defeated a ruthless king and his black sorcerer. She rose above the rest, even after watching her whole family die, and never gave up. She is a great role model for girls of any age. And now, there is a second reason this series changed my life, but it isn't about the story or plot, it is about the author. I went to her book signing/event in Provo Utah (I even flew out there from NH) and she was the nicest and most encouraging person I have met in a while. She went out of her way to make all her readers feel special, taking the time to chat with each person as much as they desired. She told us that even though she can write her books quicker than most, it took her a long time to finally get published. Because of her, I'll never give up on my dreams. Because of her, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Because of her, my confidence has been boosted.

            NOW, back to Endure.

            In Endure, Alexa protected her new, young king, Damian, with a vigor even though he fought to keep her safe and by his side because of their engagement and their fierce love for each other. But then, Alexa realizes she needed to go find Rylan, her best friend, before he was brought to their psychotic enemy king under the watchful eye of Rafe, a man who hates Alexa with a burning passion because she was part of the death of his sister. Damian reluctantly allows Alexa to go find Rylan but sends Eljin, a talented sorcerer to help protect her.

            At the border of Dansii, the enemy kingdom, Alexa and Eljin are captured and brought through tunnels. Once they made it through, Alexa finds Rylan barely alive. She is forced to agree to the king's twisted plans in order to save her two friends.

            Instead of going further with my summary of the book, I will say this: DEATH, DEATH, AND MOOOOORE DEATH. DEEEEAAAATHHHH! Followed by: lots and lots of tears (by the reader).

            But Sara B. Larson crafted each death, and each escape of death, with such beauty that I had never quite seen before. A lot of authors add in death for a "twist" or because they need something "interesting" but each death in Endure was done with perfection. They died with honor. Died protecting each other. Died to finally put an end to Dansii's threat.

            I recommend this book to anyone and everyone. Even if you aren't a fan of Fantasy, it will be worth the time. You won't regret it.

UNSPOKEN is OUT

Title: Unspoken
Author: C.C Hunter
Genre: YA Paranormal Romance



Goodreads Summary:
       Despite her superhuman strength and enhanced senses, Della Tsang's life as a vampire certainly hasn't been easy. Especially since she was reborn and bound to the mysterious, infuriating, and gorgeous Chase Tallman.

       But if there's one thing that's always kept Della going, it's her dream of being an elite paranormal investigator. Her newest case is the opportunity she's been waiting for, but as Della tries to solve the twenty year old murder and clear her father's name. She uncovers secrets about the vampire council. And about Chase.

      Feeling betrayed by all the secrets he's kept hidden from her, Della is determined to keep him as far away from her heart as she can. But she'll need his help to solve the case that will lead them into the darkest and ugliest vampire gangs in town and into the scariest reaches of her heart.  

Gabrielle's 5 STAR Review:
        Unspoken is an epic ending to the Shadow Falls: After Dark trilogy. It had everything you could ever want: love, mystery, loyalty, and suspense.
        Della Tsang, a vampire at Shadow Falls, knows deep in her heart that her father is innocent of the murder they suspect he committed. Even when all the evidence points to him, her faith in him never waivers. He's mean to her and wants her out of his house but she didn't even think about giving up. Even when she broke down, she never gave up. Della is certainly a great role model for teenaged girls. Her determination is admirable.
       Chase, Della's not-quite-boyfriend-because-she's-confused-about-her-feelings, leaves his post at the Vampire Council to join the FRU so he can help Della and prove to her she can trust him. His "Father", which is Della's "dead uncle", wants to step forward and take the fall for the murder Della's dad is a suspect of but Chase swears him he will find the murderer.
       Steve, Della's past love interest, helps Della and Chase whenever needed. He helps Della break into somewhere, and when one of them gets hurt, he saves their life. (NOT GIVING AWAY WHO THOUGH) And not to mention, my favorite part, he sits down with Della and lets her talk about her problems and embraces her whenever needed. He's there for her through the entire book. What a sweetheart! (Team Steve all the way!)
       Chase and Della (Also with the help of Burnett) race against the clock (the trial date) to find the murderer but the closer they seem to get to answers, the more danger, and secrets they uncover.
       The only thing that disappointed me was the fact that most of the other campers weren't in this book as much. C.C Hunter has done a great job keeping in all old characters but not in this one. There are some scenes with Kylie, Miranda, Lucas, and Perry, but not as much as I hoped.  But this was only a minor disappointment because the book in itself was wonderful. Definitely worth the wait!
       I can't wait for more by C.C Hunter. None of her books have let me down yet. I hear she's writing a book for Miranda, which I'm excited about!!! If you love paranormal, romance, suspense, then this series is for you! I would even recommend this to anyone who enjoys YA.

All Chained Up

By Sophie Jordan

Adult Contemporary Romance

 

Blurb provided by Avon:
There are bad boys and then there are the men of Devil’s Rock…. 
Some men come with a built-in warning label. Knox Callaghan is one of them. Danger radiates from every lean, muscled inch of him, and his deep blue eyes seem to see right through to Briar Davis’s most secret fantasies. But there’s one major problem: Briar is a nurse volunteering at the local prison, and Knox is an inmate who should be off-limits in every way.
Knox feels it too—a shocking animal magnetism that drives him to risk his own life to protect Briar’s. Paroled at last, he tries to resist her. She’s too innocent, too sweet, and she has no idea what Knox is capable of. But a single touch can lead to a kiss—and a taste…until the only crime is denying what feels so right…

City of Bones Review

Goodreads summary:
             When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder― much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin air. It's hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing―not even a smear of blood―to show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy?
             This is Clary's first meeting with the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. It's also her first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and acts a lot like a jerk. Within twenty-four hours Clary is pulled into Jace's world with a vengeance, when her mother disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the
Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to know...
            Exotic and gritty, exhilarating and utterly gripping, Cassandra Clare's ferociously entertaining fantasy takes readers on a wild ride that they will never want to end.

Taylor’s Review:
         Perhaps this isn’t a new book, it may just be an oldie, but believe me if I say it’s a goodie! If you haven’t read this yet then you should probably just change your name to Patrick, because you have been living under a rock!
          Seriously, I can’t give enough praise for this book! The characters are multidimensional, the plot is gripping, and the story is both packed with action and full of heartache. If you aren’t cheering these teen super heroes on then you have no heart!
          So what’s this entire fan fair about?
          Let’s meet Clary. She is an artistic young girl with all the fiery passion of your typical redhead.
She has her trusty sidekick Simon, a geeky boy who is in a band (what was the band’s name again?). The two are inseparable. That is until Clary is tossed into the world of Shadowhunter’s, where no one is who or what they seem to be. Even Clary, just what is she? She meets the sarcastic and sexy Jace, cold and stoic Alex and the flirtatious and spicy Isabelle, three tough warriors bent on the destruction of demons. And do I smell a romance between Jace and Clary?
          With the help of Brooklyn’s High Warlock they just might save the day from an evil over lord!
This book is thrilling from the first page. Cassandra Claire does an amazing job at painting a vivid
picture of her exciting world. This book is a gateway drug to the series that is The Immortal Instruments.
