review 1: So, this book picked up a few months after the first book ended. Shia has been avoiding Royce, and getting closer to Chaz, her ex. Now however, she's learned that trouble is coming, and it may be aimed in her direction. In an effort to find out what's going on, she contacts Royce... and everything escalates from there. It's a wild ride.On the plus side, Shia didn't strike me as quite so stupid this time. On the down side, the only time you see any real bravery from her is when she's wearing the belt or behind sheilds. While I like the fact that she's human, and not other... she's still awfully squishy. It's a bit nerve wracking! However in this she didn't end up hospitalized for more than a month so I think that's an improvement. Although since I'm pretty sure tha... moret it was Alec's blood that fixed her, that might not happen again. Still can't say I'd put this series in my top 10, but so far I'm glad someone else did, because I'm enjoying it. Looking forward to the next book
review 2: Oh, how I love a second book that hits the spot. After a shit ton of historical romances, I appreciated the ambiguous nature of the love interests in Taken by the Others. (Which I think may have been an issue for me in Hunted by the Others, since I usually like a clear winner.) And really, this book isn't about love interests. It's about Shia.It's also about the absolute mind fuckery. By the end of the book, I wasn't sure what or who to believe; everyone seems to be manipulating Shia to get what they want. Poor Shia. Everyone wants her and she doesn't really understand why.And all it did was make me want to run out and get the next book in the series. Which I can't, because dude, nine other library books to read first. But I'll get there. (Evernote lists, FTW!)I'm really intrigued where Jess Haines will take Shia (and Chaz and Royce and everyone else) next. Taken by the Others has a "resolved for now" ending, so you know shit's gonna get real; for as much as we learned this time, we also learned we (and Shia) don't know enough. less
