***WARNING: MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS!*** (I've tried to avoid it)
I had mixed feelings about reading 'Succubus Revealed'. I wanted to read it to finish the series, but I've never been much of a Seth fan and it was pretty obvious that Georgina was going to end up with him. Though part of me really wanted to see Georgina with Roman (ok, most of me wanted to see that happen), I'd accepted the fact that for Georgina to be happy, she needed to be with Seth.
It was interesting to see how their story ended though. Despite their reunion in 'Succubus Shadows', it's not all smooth sailing. Some of the twists in the story I was expecting (like who Seth was and why Georgina was being sent to Las Vegas), but Richelle Mead definitely threw in a few unexpected turns.
I loved Roman and Carter. They always manage to make me smile; especially Carter, he's a pretty awesome angel. I loved the few moments when they were together, it showed how much things can change. I never expected to see Roman and Carter almost being friends, Roman's come a long way from 'Succubus Blues'. (Can't say I'm surprised by Carter's friendly display, he's nice to everyone.)
I was disappointed with the ending. I was really hoping, as the last book in the series, that the main stories, characters and loose ends would be tied up. I don't know if Richelle's planning a spin-off series like she did for the Vampire Academy series, I haven't heard if she is, but to leave such an important character's fate left unknown kills me. I really hope we find out what happened to them soon.
4/5 stars

A wholesome ending for this series!!! I think this is the first time a book makes my cry over a happy situation rather than a sad, devastating one, and I loved it! It was a good series overall, full of sassiness, romance, drama and fun characters that'll make you laugh over everything they say. 4/5.

Tuvo un principio algo lento, pero la lectura toma ritmo antes de la mitad del libro. Me gusto el giro que Richelle le dio a la historia de Georgina.
El final fue muy bueno con un solo detalle que no me agrado. A pesar de eso, muy buen final de serie.

Well, I didn't want this series to end, but I was satisfied with the end of it. I laughed and I cried. This was a really good book.
I love Georgina Kincaid. I really liked most of the regular characters in this series and in this book. I don't know about anyone else but I would like to see Carter in another series. I really liked him. I will miss Hugh, Cody and Peter. I feel as though I am leaving friends behind. Maybe Ms Mead will include them in another series. I would like that. Maybe feature one of them. I especially would enjoy a series that would look closer into Carter and see what makes and Angel into a hard drinker and a smoker? Wouldn't that be fun?
Okay, so Georgina is a succubus and yes she has not always been the best that she could be and sometimes she isn't the best at getting peoples souls. When she gets a dream transfer to Las Vegas!! It should be a succubus dream job bit alas it is not. Georgina wants to stay in Seattle with the man that she loves, Seth. Seth is willing to join her but his sister in law is extremely ill and he can't just leave her. What to do, what to do. This is the story of that, I don't do spoilers so I am not going to right now.
Should you read this? Oh yes!! But I would start at the beginning of the series so you can enjoy it all.

I don't know if it is because this is the last book or I've finally gotten into the characters or if the author has improved, but I laughed so much in this book. The side characters just stole my heart.
On the flip side, I also teared up.
It is dramatic and emotional and I don't agree with all that happened :(
Carter totally stole my heart... and Cody... and Roman... and Seth... and even Georgina got better (a little).
Even though I'll probably never re-read this series, I am glad I read it :)

WHAT AN ENDING! It's okay, no spoilers :)
This was a wonderfully, beautifully, perfect end to this series. It had everything that I've come to love from the Succubus series: a mystery, witty dialogue, my favourite characters and sex, of course. Things drew to a brilliant close that was dramatically fitting for a series of books that have kept me so thoroughly hooked throughout. Something huge is discovered that would be insane when told by some authors but is cataclysmically awesome when handled by [a:Richelle Mead|137902|Richelle Mead|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1270374609p2/137902.jpg].
Don't you just love it when you arrive at the final installment in a series and there's this great big pulling together of all events and happenings of the previous books? When everything ties together and it becomes apparent that small matters all counted towards the bigger picture and the author knew how it would all come together and explode into an extraordinary climax from the very start. Like, if you read my updates you will see where I mentioned the lengthy dreams in book 5. I thought it was a case of the author finding something to fill the time because her series was running out of juice - oh, apparently not.
Lots of mysteries get solved and questions get answered, all remarkably told in [a:Richelle Mead|137902|Richelle Mead|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1270374609p2/137902.jpg]'s quirky and addictive style. And if you felt that you were losing faith in some of the characters you'd previously loved at the end of the last book, then don't worry, [b:Succubus Revealed|7802254|Succubus Revealed (Georgina Kincaid, #6)|Richelle Mead|http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51GEbdqLY-L._SL75_.jpg|10788641] restored all my old feelings for Georgie, Seth and their quirky mortal and immortal friends. Personally, I felt that this book could not have been better, it's my favourite of an extremely enjoyable series.
And the conclusion is both happy and sad... bittersweet I think is most appropriate. I will miss these novels very much.

I really want to be able to give this book more than 3 stars...but I just can't! If would give the series an overall rating of 4 stars, whilst I love Richelle Mead's writing, this series didn't hold my attention as well as Vampire Academy or Storm Born series has, and so I would recommend those series to others first.
So, what did I think of Succubus Revealed? It wrapped up the series in a nice little bow, but it was so predictable! I think that Mead sowed the seed in earlier books and this just kind of tied up the loose ends. It lacked the intrigue and mystery that Georgina was solving in the previous books, and the drama was left to Roman and Hugh to unveil - as we don't read from their point of view, we didn't get any of the unravelling of the clues (although it was fairly obvious what was going to happen!)
Seth, although quirky and likeable, just didn't do it for me and perhaps this is why this series lacked something in my opinion. And, what happened to Roman?! The supporting characters of the series were kind of deserted at the end, I understand the logistics behind the reasoning but still... Georgina seemed to do everything for her friends when she was a succubus and once she became human, she really did put that world behind her, and I think this goes against her original character traits?
I'm really hoping that the final installment of the storm born series is better than this - I have read that it is a big book (hoorah as this book was tiny!) and I hope it doesn't feel as rushed as the Kincaid series.
Glad I read the books, but would only recommend to true Richelle Mead fans.

Succubus Revealed was the first book I've read written by Richelle Mead. I got this book in a book fair because it was very cheap! I didn't even know that this was the last book in a series.
Despite being part of a series, I didn't feel lost and could easily follow the story. However, it didn't spark any excitement in me, especially the first half of the book. I felt like this book could have been much shorter. I found myself skimming over several parts, i.e. the bowling match. The parts that drew me in were when Seth was hypnotized and Georgina was in trial. I didn't read all of the books, so I can't say anything about the character development in this one. Carter and Roman seem like wonderful characters!
I felt like the plot had so much potential, but overall, this book fell short of my expectations.
