Eve: The Awakening by Jenna Moreci
4.0
Well, I'm glad I've read this one. I love Jenna's youtube channel, I think she's very funny and sort of a smart-ass (in a good way). The book itself had a couple of laugh out loud moment, which I appreciated, and was interesting overall. And I think more people should read this book, cause I'm pretty sure a lot of you can enjoy it.
I loved all the characters we were introduced to. Eve and Jason, of course, I rooted for them. Percy and his mom, god, they were adorable. Sancho reminded me a lot of Leo from Heroes of Olympus series and I loved that crazy explosion lover for it.
The "bad" characters weren't deep enough in my opinion, like Heather, for example, was just a two-faced bitch for the sake of bitchiness, I don't know. I get it, nobody liked chimeras, but still.
Aliens were cool as well! Interesting concept and anatomy, plus they were flipping creepy from time to time. And the battle scenes were epic, I liked that aspect a lot!
I can also say that I was very much satisfied with the way this book was written. And by that I mean that I got to love and root and care for the characters almost from the very beginning, which doesn't happen that often in stand-alones.
A little bit too much of italic (cursive) in the text, though. Like I get it, she wanted to highlight some phrases and maybe to stress some words, but it really was a little too much of cursive on one page.
Really glad I've finally read this book, since I've known about it for more than a year. I'll be waiting for the next book by Jenna and hoping it's gonna be just as good!

Also I'd like to know why Percy (and his mom) and Sancho were so cool about her being one. Like, I get it, they're cool people and all, and their best friend turned out to be a chimera as well, but I got the feeling that I was owed some explanation, I don't know... Not that I didn't like it.Aliens were cool as well! Interesting concept and anatomy, plus they were flipping creepy from time to time. And the battle scenes were epic, I liked that aspect a lot!
