I definitely got some Twilight vibes from this one. Which I will always want...

Setting was a foresty area. Shy girl meets supernatural hunk. Undying love comes immediately. I mean the perfect recipe for paranormal teen book perfection. The plot was fun and expected. So much angst! Really brought me back to my high school days.

A very slow-paced book. The story line was very predictable and typical. The characters were diverse and great though. I think the first person point of view sucked a lot of times and dragged the story. Even the story started with a promising note it became very boring and less interesting with every passing page. I had to push myself to finish the book.
My favorite character is Mitch who was very underrated in my opinion. I really liked his character and he should have a stronger plot line.
Noah and Eden were the typical fell-in-love-at-first-sight type couple. Their romance was very off and boring. I loved the dinner scene with Noah's family though it was cute and normal.
There was lot fantasy and i felt the last 20-25 pages of the book very forced and rushed.
The cliffhanger for the next book wasn't intriguing at all. Not going to continue the trilogy.

No offense to anyone, its just my opinion on the book.

Happy Reading!
XOXO

An eARC of this book was given to me by NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

The genre of this book is one of my favorites, so I’m not surprised to see that I really enjoyed it. It’s really nice the way the story is woven by switching the point of view of each chapter – one with Eden and the next with Noah – in a way that only made the story more interesting.

By doing this, you can see their bond shaping and becoming stronger. It’s visible how they feel each other and for each other. (Confusing? The bond is interesting, to say the least) But that is not all. This story isn’t only about a werewolf bond. It’s also about the strange powers that Eden has.

She can do some interesting and perplexing things.

Synopsis: “On the first day of her new school all that shy, wounded Eden wants is to finish her senior year and escape to college. It can’t be too much to ask for, can it?
Noah has spent two years not knowing why he failed to come of age as every one of his ancestors has. Two years drifting aimlessly, searching for direction…
When the two meet the connection is instantaneous and undeniable. A connection that has Eden running and Noah burning to know more.
A connection destined to be the catalyst for a prophecy that neither knew existed. A prophecy others are willing to kill for.
As families rupture and struggle to realign, as their hearts connect and ignite, Eden learns to trust. But with their love and life on the line, Eden must find the power to believe.
Prophecy Awakened is the first book in Tamar Sloan’s Prime Prophecy Series. If you enjoyed Stephanie Meyer, Lauren Kate or Maggie Stiefvater, then you’ll love a series that captures their best traits in an epic, captivating story of a love that defies boundaries.”

It is captivating, isn’t it? I didn’t know what kind of supernatural beings were in this book until a few chapters in. And honestly, it was the not knowing, and the boredom caused by the first couple chapters that made me apprehensive as well as elated. apprehensive because I wasn’t sure what I was reading, exactly. Elated because it was something that I always enjoyed reading, and it didn’t disappoint.

It was magnificently written, and the story was really well planned. There are some “what is this?” moments that I believe will be answered in the next book, and if not, It will only cause a huge mess. Well, it was a good book, and I will read the sequel when it is published, but there is a chance that it won’t be that good. Why? I’m not sure, I just have a feeling. Ridiculous, right? But I hope that I’m wrong.
