Mortal Obligation by Nichole Chase

4.0

Intriguing twists to the whole paranormal ya novel with the gods and the guardians and the history of the Dark Ones and all that -- kind of refreshing. It was missing something to get it to the 5 stars...having hard time defining what that is though. I think the writing was a bit more simplistic, and spent time on mundane topics that had me waiting for something to happen, but no she was just taking a shower and no one was going to attack or whatever. That's not necessarily bad, I'm just wishy washy on it. It was kind of nice that while Ree felt she was a social outcast, she did have some self-esteem....I get the heroines that don't have self-esteem and think they're ugly or whatever, it's just refreshing to have a heroine that was satisfied with herself. Definitely interested to see where this goes...
