FairyTales Don't Exist

review 1: ***I hint at what happens in the book. But it's a most definite read. The absolute best!***I found this author from her TBBT series. I wasn't expecting much because I usually find some of their old characters rewritten in a new story. But was I surprised! I loved this book. I pulled an all nighter just to finish it. It was worth it. The book is such a roller coaster and I am hoping that Angel Blackwood lives up to her name, strong and resilient. I really want to see her become the alpha of her pack. I don't care too much for the whole mate thing. I kind of just want to know why a whole bunch of wolves had a thing for her. Five guys were after her. Five! I hope she says it has to do with her being a half wolf/human. I just want to see some major character change from meek A... morelexia to strong Angel. I like the whole roller coaster of emotions from the first book, but I don't want her to stay as her pushover self. Like how she left her friends and didn't try to ease their guilt. She just left them to wallow in it. It seemed like the perfect form of revenge for everything they did to her. Except for Ronnie, I really felt for her.Sophie hasn't released a date for the second book because she works and goes to school as well. You should definitely visit her website.
review 2: 5 CrownsBook 1 in the Fairytales don't exist series.Well I need to start by telling you that this is a genre I stay away from. I'm just not a paranormal type of girl, but after reading Sophie's fantastic Broken Beautiful series and because I am a huge fan, I had to read Alexia Eden. I enjoyed the Twilight series, so this wasn't completely new territory, but I certainly didn't know what to expect. What I did know was that I would either love it or hate it.Alexia Eden is a young girl in her senior year who has been moved to a new town by her mother following her father's death. Very much a Daddy's girl, Alexia has a very strained relationship with her mother and being forced into moving away from her friends is tough on her. She soon however meets a group of friends and starts to settle into life. In particular she forms a friendship with Jax the group's leader and Mr popular. She definitely knows she has feelings for Jax but when his best friend Drake shows a romantic interest in her, she starts to date him and Jax steps back unwilling to step on his best friends toes.What Alexia is unaware of is that her new group of friends are in actual fact a wolf pack, with Jax the Alpha heir apparent and Drake serving as his beta. She loves them both, but this may well lead to her downfall. For Drake's wolf Sebastian isn't the nice guy that Drake is, when Jealousy and paranoia rear their ugly heads someone is bound to get hurt. Alexia will start to question herself, her family and secrets may or may not come to a head.I loved this book, yes it is paranormal but it has a real YA/NA feel to it; which is probably why I loved it so much. Yes the Werewolf elements are a huge part of this story but it is also a coming of age story about family, first loves and becoming an adult. I loved the characters (okay, maybe not ?) but they all have very important and specific roles within the storyline. OMG - I loved Jax and to coin a Twighlight term, I am so Team Jax, although their are lots of candidates for Alexia to choose from, she really is spoilt for choice. So from someone that tends to avoid this genre, I was so shocked that it sucked me in. The story is full of twists and turns and so fast paced that you will struggle to put it down. In true Sophie style, we are left with the mother of all cliffhangers!! My god, where will the story go from here? who knows, but what I do know is that I am waiting with baited breath. I know Angel Blackwood is currently in the works, it will be an immediate 1 click for me. Bring it the hell on!A highly recomended Paranormal book with a YA feel - read it!! less
