Freaking amazing! I loved everything about the book, every surprise was like a shock especially one scene... won't tell but it will blow your socks and maybe pants off. Can't wait for Boundless. Need to buy Radiant on my Kindle...I'll do that now. 4 stars

Loved Hallowed just as much as I loved Unearthly, which is totally surprising and lovely all at the same time. The atmosphere is perfect, the writing is spot-on (and often so so funny) and I just adored it.

I think I waited too long I think to start book 2 of this series because I couldn't get into the story. I'll try this series again someday.

I still liked it but not as much as the first book. I do think it's a pretty good second book though, it never got boring as second books have a tendency to be. On to part three!

I loved this. As much as the first and in a way even more. I cried, of course, but it was so very good.

So good! This book did not suffer from second book syndrome :)

Finished this book the next day. Was slower than the first but I still enjoyed it. The Christian vs Tucker thing was getting kind of annoying at parts.

I LOVED the mythology of the series. The characters were great. The one thing I have objections with is the way the author builds suspense. Giving us little snippets and taking them away. I much prefer the old "Everything's fine... and then BOOM. Twist." To be fair, it did have a bit of that in there as well. :D
