My Review
I underestimated Beautiful Creatures...I mean majorly, when I first began to read Beautiful Creatures I just couldn't get into it the characters where great but there was a dead start, flat in places and my mind wondered while Beautiful Creatures continued to give us the basis on the story, but the deadness didn't last long and before I knew it I was hit by an unexpected uniqueness that gets an all round toast of brilliantness as Kami and Margaret took me on a journey that will have me pining for the sequel until its release.
I fell head over heels with this novel. I loved the characters all of them they where well written and thought out with there roles suiting them perfectly. The writing is gripping, engaging and ....what started out boring proved to be parts that would later give a better understanding to what happens in Beautiful Creatures...what more can be said this is one book that will be remembered for a while and I'm sure will have Kami & Margaret pestered by there fans until the sequel and then after.
