I had never heard of this book until I came across it on facebook I know they say don t judge a book by it s cover, but when it actually comes to books most of us do The cover is what makes us pick it up in the first place The cover of this book is mysterious, aside from the title and authors name, a beautiful face which makes you want to find out what s awaiting you inside I was so curious to find out what this book was about that I got in contact with the author and asked to do a review I didn [...]

I was lucky enough to win a Kindle copy of this great read Throughout the book I found myself guessing what was going on, some things obvious others quite hard I found this read quite easy flowing and intriguing enough to keep me going back each night before bed, at some parts even speed reading to see what was at the end of the chapter.The main character was easy to connect with, as well as her friends and class mates around her With a story line that trails you along that slowly builds up to a [...]

I have never cried during a book before The ending broke my heart and made me want to jump in the book and help in any way that I could It was something that caught me by surprise and left me wanting to get my hands on book 2 immediately I felt a connection with all the characters The story line was different and refreshing The characters were real and lovable The twists and turns had me on the edge of my reading chair This is a must read I ll be following Deb s future books for sure.

I let out a huff and forced a smile You re a vampire I stated Then why haven t I sucked your blood Lina He whispered right before pressing his soft lips against mine Then he inched towards my neck and lingered his lips on my pulse I want to apologize now, this review is lacking alot compared to my other reviews, it was one of those books that honestly was hard to really write a review, without making it a spoiler review and I didnt want to give you guys any spoilers You know that feeling when yo [...]

Itching for Books ReviewI was worried the story wouldn t be as alluring as that cover but fortunately, it completely satisfied my taste This book lives up exceedingly well to its title Captivated is addictive, possessing, magnificent, and electrifying in every way possible No amount of words in the English dictionary could possibly define how breathtaking it truly is.Mindy s such an adorable character she s bubbly, embodies a remarkable gift of being the last to figure things out, and evidently [...]

Ya know when you read a synopsis of a book and you think that it s going to be this great book, and then you read it and it kinda sucks Well this is NOT that book.This book completely lived up to my expectations It was full of action in all the right places and there were plenty of heart melting moments to balance everything out And then there was the ending, but I ll get back to that in a minuteMindy and Dean were childhood friends That is until the night Dean comes home to find his parents bru [...]

Captivated started out as what seemed to be my favorite read of August The story line was different and very intriguing But as I continued to read, I noticed the lack of character in the writing, the choppy sentences I kept waiting for it to change, but it never did The protagonist started off so strong willed to me, but as the story progressed, she just seemed like any other teenage drama queen I have many pet peeves, but putting constant exclamation points at the end of sentences in the monolo [...]

When I read the prologue for Captivated, I thought this is going to be so good Boy, was I wrong The storyline had amazing potential but the mediocre writing, lack of sound characterization and a weak execution of the plot made this a difficult read for me at times.At the age of 13 Mindy and her best friend Dean experienced a life changing event After seeing a man whose arms were covered in blood leaving Dean s house, the two stumbled upon the dead bodies of Dean s father and mother After that da [...]

Deze recensie is als eerste geplaatst op Carpe LibraHet heeft even geduurd voordat ik goed en wel in Captivated zat Maar vanaf dat moment werd het boek beter met elke bladzijde die ik omdraaide Tot het met een knal eindigde en me met open mond en totaal verbluft achterliet Wat een cliffhanger Ik weet zeker dat ik zo snel mogelijk het volgende deel ga opzoeken Ik moet weten hoe het verder gaat Captivated is zeer goed in elkaar gezet Stukje bij beetje werden puzzelstukken geopenbaard Hints worden [...]

Loved this book, couldn t put it down However from a critique point of view, it was really badly edited I have read review before when people comment on the editing and I have never noticed before I would think, you obviously weren t into the story enough to even notice However, with this book I was totally into the story Really loved it But found myself reading over paragraphs and sentences because it was worded incorrectly and didn t make sense I have noticed the odd spelling or grammical sp e [...]

This is an author not afraid to think outside he box and take a leap Captivated will grab readers right from the Prologue, and not allow you a breath til the very end The romance is hot, and the headache is palpable Be ready to laugh and cry in this whirlwind story that will deny reads their simple happily ever after The drastic conclusion left me in a uproar, and in despair for the characters of the intense read I m anxious to see just where D Apodaca will take this story from here Congratulati [...]

I loved this book it was amazing It has everything a good book should It s exciting, thrilling, heart breaking, and funny I loved the main characters Dean and Mindy It does start of a little slow but it picks up quickly Once I got into reading it I couldn t put it down I can t wait until the next book There is a huge cliff hanger at the end of the book and usually I don t like those but it adds to the book I was left wanting I will for sure be picking up the next book.5 5 stars

This book really spoke to me It was just so compelling I hated to put it down to go to work this morning, and I kept thinking about it all day The one thing that made this book over the top awesome for me was the character Dean He was so well written, so sexy, so DELICIOUS sigh I loved the pace of the story too There never seemed to be any filler to pad the pages like you find in some other books In fact, the only problem I can find with this book, is that I m dying to know what happens in the n [...]

I don t even know what to say I really loved this book It s hillarious and kept me on the edge of my seat At times I was holding my breath It was never dull and I reccomend it to everyone The ending was one of the most interesting cliffhangers I ve ever read EVER It didn t cut through the story, but created another problem that you need to read the next book I cannot wait for book 2 I m officially hooked.
