Book of the Month: Sequels and Three-quels

Continuing on with my Book Of The Month posts, today I'm reviewing the second and third books in the Crescent Chronicles series.  Beware, there may be spoilers.

The second book in the series takes place a couple weeks or so after the first one.  Allie is now in college and attending Tulane.  She's still getting used to the idea that she's the mate to the prince of paranormals and what this position entails.

Allie and Levi's relationship seemed to stall and then grow very suddenly.  It still remains a little unrealistic, but you also got to peek in deeper and see how much they really cared for each other. 

Speaking of growth, none of the characters really seemed to grow.  Except, maybe Jared.  There was more of the paranormal society, which was fun and interesting to see, and got a closer look at how things are run.

The ending was the best part.  It was romantic, exciting, and a cliff hanger that isn't too bad but still has you wanting the third.  Better then the first one for sure.

 This is the final and best book in this trilogy.  The characters became extremely believable and I felt like they were finally taking everything with the right amount of seriousness.  Honestly, the most action happened in this book and I feel like that was the secret ingredient the other two were missing to make them perfect.  Levi remained rather annoying with his over-protectedness, but that is his character so I can't really be too angry.

The ending was perfect.  PERFECT.  Not everything was wrapped up, necessarily (no worries, there's a spinoff trilogy about... Toby!  can't wait.), but everything clicked into place- the only place they should have gone.  I really liked this one and it makes the whole series desirable.  It actually just came out so it was nice to read it so soon.
