"Hunted" by Denise Grover Swank

From Goodreads: "Emma Thompson and Will Davenport may have escaped from the Vinco Potentia, but the secret political organization is far from their only problem. The trail to Jake is growing colder every day, but when Emma begins to display unusual powers of her own, Will wonders if her role in the prophecy is more significant than anyone ever believed.

To find out, they delve into Emma’s past while she struggles against a subconscious force – a force that takes the form of a man who knows too much, shares too little, and may be the biggest threat to her future yet."


As becomes evident after reading my review of "Chosen" by Denise Grover Swank I LOVED the book (basically everything about it was top-notch in my opinion, from the character development, to the fast paced and unique plot). While I did enjoy this book, I must admit that overall I on the fence about how I feel about it. 

On the one hand, I applaud Denise for writing a paranormal plot that is wholly unique, but on the other hand, I felt that at times (the ending especially) was too "out there" and rushed (basically the entire paranormal element, what you have been waiting for two books to be revealed, is revealed within the last chapter or so of this book). Also, for much of the book I was irritated by Emma (when in the past book I had found her to be such a relateable character)- I felt that she was not only did she take advantage of Will in much of the book, but she also took him for granted. However, Will's was even more so swoon-worthy in this book, distracting me every now and again from Emma's boogerish behaviour.  

Despite my criticisms, this book was just as fast paced and unputdownable as the previous book- you better plan accordingly because once you start reading it you won't be able to stop. I am very curious to see where Denise will take the paranormal element in the next book in this series.

Rating: 7.5/10

Every different brand name possesses a several form iwc replica sale not to mention subject, really can typically the confusing activity from Patek Philippe, typically the delving back ground from Panerai looks after and / or typically the aeronautic legacy of music from Breitling looks after.

Not to mention, even though plan to have a particular, a large number of even choose some negotiate. Which means, whereby do you really consider a less expensive Europe follow?

Deals from Europe looks after are attractive Panerai replica sale at standstill; most people frequently you shouldn't consider the immense charge cutbacks in sale-time for which you can concerning various high-end stuff. The important reason of this might be that vendors basically produces a comparatively little looks after year after year : basically near 37, 000 Panerai looks after are actually released regularly. Call for frequently outstrips furnish. Establishments discover this unique so they discover many don't need to budge concerning charge towards captivate potential customers; it is a fact many hublot replica uk are able to offer for sale typically the looks after without the need towards slide the charge. But, need to make sure outlets stow most people are able to bargain for 'extras', along the lines of straps. Don't think this really peanuts; Patek Philippe straps are actually hand-stitched crocodile face not to mention selling price thousands of $ to change. Having a complimentary straps will save you profit someday.
