My life had always been blissfully, wonderfully normal. But it only took one moment to change everything.
Suddenly, my sister, Georgia, and I were orphans. We put our lives into storage and moved to Paris to live with my grandparents. And I knew my shattered heart, my shattered life, would never feel normal again. Then I met Vincent.
Mysterious, sexy, and unnervingly charming, Vincent Delacroix appeared out of nowhere and swept me off my feet. Just like that, I was in danger of losing my heart all over again. But I was ready to let it happen.
Of course, nothing is ever that easy. Because Vincent is no normal human. He has a terrifying destiny, one that puts his life at risk every day. He also has enemies . . . immortal, murderous enemies who are determined to destroy him and all of his kind.
While I'm fighting to piece together the remnants of my life, can I risk putting my heart—as well as my life and my family's—in jeopardy for a chance at love? {Goodreads}
**I am trying to reduce my reviews to 4 (my real review) to 5 (my final say-so) paragraphs (at the most) because I tend to think they are a tad to long and rambling sometimes. I hope these new forms of reviews are more helpful and quick to the point to fill all your needs! Thanks! :D (this paragraph don't count fool!) :b
Where do I even begin!!! Ok so well to be honest, this is my first ever zombie book and man was/am glad it was this one!!! This book is nothing but amazing! Sorry but this book is gonna be short. I am at a loss of words and the only way you are going to understand the genius of this AMAZING book is if you read it yourself! So pardon me if I ramble and don't quite make sense. I will try my best to do this book as much justice as I can! Here I go!
So first off the setting.....PARIS BABY!!!! Dudes you have NO clue how much I love Paris settings! It could be the worst writing in the world and I would love it anyways why? just cus the setting is in Paris! It's such a gorgeous place (so I've heard) and it is my dream! Yes, because of this wonderful book I have decided to (after college) go to Paris, live there for two or so years, depending on how long it takes me to learn fluent French.Paris just gave this book everything! The eeriness, the mystery, and DUH! THE ROMANCE!!
I LOVE Vincent! He is very delicious! Ya he makes you *clears throat* "swoon, die, melt, swoon, melt and DIE! again!!" He is one smokin hot Zombie....I mean Revenant! Kate was a very real and cool easy to relate to character! She was really cool and I really enjoyed seeing everything through her eyes! Oh! One more important character! JULES!!!!! I sooooo love Jules! He doesn't get much action but when he does my stomach does flips! There is just something so charismatic about him!
The whole story of the Revenants enthralled me! I adored the way they are made, the oposites (their enemies) the stories, the purpose...it ALL! This book gave me my obsession on everything! Paris, zombies/revenants, French boys, Amy Plum (in a not creepy way I just love her writing style lol one of my favorite authors now!!) :D
~~~~~~~*My Rate*~~~~~~~
A full 5/5 star rating!! :D
~~~~~~~*Trailer*~~~~~~~

I LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH! It was also my first (and so far, only) zombie book, and I am sooo glad it was this one. VINCENT!!!!! *clears throat* Uh, sorry about that. I can't help it. Anyway, the fact that the setting is freaking PARIS makes this book a thousand times more awesome. I can't wait for Until I Die!

Ya so far my only too but I have Dearly Departed waiting on my shelf and it looks SO GOOD! I know!! VINCENT!!!!

LOVED this one too!!
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait for the next one!! And those covers.
Do you think a love triangle might ensue with Kate & Jules?!

Me either!! And oooo tuff one! I hope not! As much as I love Jules I can't see Vincent doubting himself in a relationship and I don't think Jules would go that far as a friend to Vincent...again hoping lol but I bet I'd enjoy it either way lol
