review 1: 3.5 StarsI have mixed feelings about this book. I really loved the first one, I found it charming and adored the romance between Riley and Eli...I was hoping for more of the same here. Not so much. Riley annoyed me most of the time, I'm all for a strong female lead but I don't consider being ridiculously stubborn (bordering on stupid) as a sign of strength. That being said I still liked the book well enough. I enjoyed the supporting characters more this time around. I won't be rushing to read book 3...although the cliffhanger ending means I'll be reading it sooner than I otherwise would have.
review 2: See the full post at sychofaeriesbookobsession.blogspot.comNow, bad-ass Riley Poe has vampiric tendencies and is, somehow, even more bad-ass.Riley is one of my f... moreavorite main characters. She is very independent, and doesn't need a man to protect her, even before she had 2 ancient vampires out to get her blood. Eli is a bit too overprotective of her in my opinion. I often find myself wishing he would back off some. After everything that happened in book 1, Afterlight, I was thrilled to get to know Seth a little better. Seth also now has vampiric tendencies, and is just as bad-ass as his sister, Riley, when it comes to fighting rouge vampires and newlings. I still really liked all of Eli's vampire family, especially his siblings, Phin, Luc and Josie. Luc has a great attitude. He knows Riley can take care of herself, and tries to get Eli to realize that too. Victorian is also a main part of this story. He was made to not seem like such a bad guy in Everdark. I am very curious to see how his story is played out.Some readers may not enjoy the Gullah accents some of the characters speak with. I am from the South, so reading this comes naturally for me. I have read a couple reviews where the reader complained of this, so be warned.I personally enjoy this series. I know vampire stories are everywhere these days, but if you like a good smutty read with not-so-average vampires then you should check this series out. less
