Playing with Monsters by Amelia Hutchins
3.0
3 stars
Okay, well I was waiting to read this for when I knew when the second one was coming but once Hutchins stated this must be read before the 5th Fae book, I decided to start!
WOW. This had such a different tone and idea. I love the complexity of Lucien and I really liked Lena. I felt that these two complimented each other so well! There was humour and intrigue and a budding love story.
Y'all know I love reincarnation and I was so pleasantly surprised when I discovered this book had that! The mystery of Katerina was great but I wish the characters knew what we did...it caused a lag in the story. I know this is a series but still... I NEED THEM TO KNOW.
I also wasn't feeling some aspects and that was Lena's weakness when it came to Lucien and his hotness. Girl. I get it, he's HAWT but...you kinda was lacking a backbone. I also didn't like the catty immature drama that brewed (HA! Pun intended..since they're witches, ya know.) I felt that it pulled away from the intense drama that was building among Lucien and Lena as well as the Fae.
I really loved that ending so I can't wait to read the second one!
