![]() I love them though, and am eagerly awaiting the next book! Additionally I should note that there is quite a bit of “horror” in these books, with some truly terrifying and disturbing moments, such as a serial killer, cannibalism, and torture. Each character is based on one of the Major Arcana from Tarot cards, so we get people like The Hermit, The Empresss, Death, The Lovers, etc. The rest of the series (there are currently two more out, with more to come) includes a growing array of supporting characters, many of whom are great fun. This one has plenty of suspense and action, and I’d recommend it for slightly more mature YA readers because of the steaminess of the romance and the darker themes of mass destruction. ![]() ![]() The plot itself is really different from anything else I’ve read, and I enjoyed that we get to see the characters before, during, and after the apocalypse happens. ![]() Personally I haven’t ever read a book that includes aspects of the Cajun culture, so I loved that part. The main character is a southern belle, and her counterpart is a Cajun bad-boy. One of the greatest strengths this one has its unique plot and characters. ![]() My Thoughts: Kresley Cole is one of my all time favorite authors, I read her adult series Immortals After Dark so I was excited to try her YA series as well. Themes include: survival, apocalypse, loss, sanity, supernatural, romance, friendship. ![]()
