Hungry For You

How to describe this book? Interesting, quirky, imaginative. Although it's easy to breeze through all the stories (because it's impossible to put down once you've started), you won't forget any of the tales. What more can I really say? Just try reading a sample and you'll understand completely.

Ravenmarked
on March 25, 2011
I'm not a huge fan of fantasy, especially Epic Fantasy, but I honestly enjoyed reading this book. First off, and one of the most important things to me, the writing is superb. It was so easy to fall into and just as good as anything out there I would find on a book store shelf. Second off, the characters are each unique and outstanding. Braedon, as the usurper of the throne, was the first pleasant surprise. Mairead, the proper royal heir, is the second. And third, the world building is fantastic. There are so many elements to delve into with the story. Handily, there is a glossary included in the back of the book (I know it is difficult sometimes to "flip" back to it with most eReaders), but most of the words I managed to figure out as I read and I loved every minute of it. From the religion to the different groups, everything comes together in beautiful and interesting layers. This was an amazing story that I enjoyed immensely. I can't wait for the second book!

Simply put: this is an amazing story. I don't know what I expected. I've read Davis' Ravenmarked, and I loved it, so I knew I would love this one as well. The two stories, while equal in quality, are completely different. This story almost has a touch of horror. There are things in it that made me gasp and made me pause to think. Even though this was only a novella, there was a lot packed in and nothing was wasted. This is a book I imagine I will end up reading again from time to time.

The Last Girl
on March 09, 2012
What I loved most about this novel was the lack of squeamishness when it came to portraying the dark vampire who kidnaps Juliette. There is no compromising-- he's not a good guy hidden in a bad boy shell and he isn't going to be transformed by love. From the moment I started reading, I completely fell into this world. It was a tough book to put down. As the end approached, I even found myself a little frightened about how the story would be resolved. I enjoyed this book greatly, and I'm sure I'll be checking out other stories by this author.
