Absolutely loved this book! I could not put it down. I’m pretty sure this is the best series I have ever read. I can’t wait to read the remaining books.

This book was so damn cute! I absolutely loved the humor, the love-hate relationship between Bonnie & Rowan and I actually learned a little about Scottish culture. Since I could not put this book down, I finished it in less than 24 hours. I’m so glad I decided to give this book a try.

The book started off kind of slow but once it got going it was hard to put the book down. I can usually tell what’s going to happen in a book but this one kept me guessing and I love it! I can’t wait to read the next in the series.

I so wanted to like this book. I absolutely love horror and got most of the never ending references to horror movies. However, this book is a complete mess. The beginning is great, in my opinion it’s actually the best part of the book. It just goes way down hill after that.
It doesn’t even tie up a huge red herring. But I’m not sure if he actually was a red herring because you actually see him killing and disposing of the bodies. The supernatural “twist” close to the end was not needed at all and the actual ending completely sucked for me.

This is a good book but I wished I would have read this before Throne of Glass.
