Chloe Saunders has a normal life for like the first fourteen years of her life. Just a bit of time after she turns fifteen, her normal life gets cut open as easy as scissors cutting through paper. She starts seeing ghosts and is thrown into a group home for crazy kids (how unfair is that?). She d...
After reading 19 pages of The Gathering by Kelly Armstrong, I chose to read it for my second book report. I chose to read it because the beginning really pulled me in and now I would really like to find put what happens. Another reason I chose to read this book was because it seems like there is ...
I LOVED this series I have re read the whole series many times. I actually consider myself too old for stuff like this now but oh my word. I fell in love with the character Derek and I loved reading the mishaps and whatnots he and Chloe encountered this series made me laugh out loud literally in ...
The Darkest Powers Bonus Pack 1 contains three stories that show the events of the The Summoning and the Awakening from the viewpoint of Derek and Tori. The first story starts with a 5 year old Derek at the Eddison Group lab. It begins shortly after the other werewolf children were terminated a...
How come it took me 3 books to love these characters? Now I can't get enough of them!I'm happy 2 of these stories are from Derek's POV. More so that 1 of those was a story where Chloe's already in the picture. I've always wondered what goes on in Derek's mind whenever he shouts at Chloe. It didn'...
Read it a day I honestly couldn't put it down. Very fast paced and intriguing.
I absolutely loved all the books!!! i LOVED these books, and personally I think she belonged with derek, they fit
loved it! sad there wasnt a 4th book.... Kelley Armstrong is one of my favourite authors! Love all her books!
I really loved the mystery and twists made in this series. It also made me shed a tear or two. i really liked it!!
I've never really been a fan of short stories. Thought I'd give this a go purely because the stories revolve around the characters I'm already familiar with. But honestly these stories didn't need to be written. Most of them are just back stories of the characters, love stories that could have be...
With the exception of "Kitsunegari", which was almost Phantom Menace-esque in its solving of an old mystery in a ridiculous and underwhelming way, these stories satisfied in terms of plot. Unfortunately, they weren't as enjoyable as they could have been (Clay and the guinea pig aside) because of...
When I finished the Darkest Powers series, I was a little upset that it didn't continue Derek and Chloe's story and relationship. Then, I found out that there were extra stories to go with the main trilogy and I was stoked. So needless to say, I found these stories amazingly awesome. I'm glad ...
Wow! This book is bad. I'd say spoiler alert before writing certain parts of this review, but you can't spoil this novel. Trust me. I got the book on sale for 99 cents, but I'm not exaggerating when I say that I didn't get my money's worth, even at that price. To be fair, the author can write, i...
Jeremy and Jaime may be my favorite couple in Armstrong's universe. I think because they are older, sensible, and non-traditional in their relationship. This short novella has quite the cute twist to it. It was a fun read, and don't expect the same kind of serious drama as Armstrong's other works...
***NOTE MY REVIEWS OFTEN CONTAIN SPOILERS***Kat is a sixteen year old unknown supernatural being raised by a vampire. She’s been on the run for a long time, but when hunters arrive for Marguerite she’s more than happy to pick up and run again. If it means staying with Marguerite it’s worth it. ...
Women of the Otherworld is probably my favourite urban fantasy series hands-down. It's got kickass women--in many different iterations of that word. They are self determined, smart and there are always emotional consequences to their choices and circumstances. I'll admit, there are some character...
Suffer The Children: By Kelley Armstrong Dark, eerie, and disturbing...I loved it!!!My favourite author has done it yet again :)Pipers: By Christopher Golden The Pied Piper of Hamlin meets Stephen King's Pet Sematary, fantastic!A Bad Season For Necromancy: By David Liss So good I wish...

BROKEN by Kelley Armstrong-a reviewBROKEN is the 6th novel in Kelley Armstrong’s Women of the Otherworld series. BROKEN continues the story of Elena, Clay and the other werewolves, but this time Elena is pregnant. As the only known female werewolf, Elena isn’t sure what to expect—literally. Bu...
I'm a HUGE fan of Armstrong's Otherworld series, and of Kelley Armstrong herself, as I find she is an amazing, top notch, extraordinary author. Her descriptive, detailed and very evocative writing style is a joy to read, the readers feel as if they were in the middle of the story, seeing everythi...
*Forse spoiler, ma è una storia così assurda e brutta che non vi perdete niente se pure non l'avete letto*Quanto è brutto questo libro da uno a 'tanto'?TANTISSIMO. OLTREMODO. VERSO L'INFINITO E OLTRE.Il libro è una porcheria aberrante e non mi capacito del perché io lo possegga in primo luogo (ca...
Reread 2012 Haunted was one of of the first urban fantasy novels I read. It might have been 2007 or 2008, I'd hadn't voluntarily read a book in years - the too many study books and 'really good Dutch literature' my mom forced on me having quashed my appetite for reading all together. But I was co...
This is the third book in Kelley Armstrong's "Women of the Otherworld" series and I must say, this is my least favourite book (as of yet) in the series. This book is narrated by Paige, the "know it all" witch we meet in "Stolen". When I first met Paige in "Stolen", I did believe that she was a so...
This book is SO GOOD. Definitely my favourite in the series so far (and the only reason I hesitate to call it my favourite of the series overall is because there's a lot I'm sure I've forgotten about the middle books, so I'm tentatively reserving judgment).First of all, I want to say that this bo...
STOLEN by Kelley Armstrong (SPOILERS)STOLEN is the second book in Kelley Armstrong’s Women of the Otherworld series. Elena Michaels, the only known female werewolf in existence, wants to lead a normal life with her mate and family, but a group of ‘researchers’ and the billionaire who heads the in...
The last two stories in this anthology really made this book. Though I like Kim Harrison's writing, her first published short story included here was kind of dry, though Kelley Armstrong's story really rocked. I've included individual reviews for each story below.Undead in the Garden of Good an...
